Sunday Update

Randy had a rough night last night. Commonly after surgery, people get fevers from not using their lungs enough. Randy got one yesterday, so he was put on benadryl to make sure he has no reaction before they gave him a blood transfusion. His transfusion had 2 units of blood. He is still is quite a bit of pain at times, but they have a regular pain medication schedule every 3 hours for one medicine and every 12 for the other. He was able to get the fever down and was able to go home! Randy is having to use a breathing apparatus to use a few times a day to strengthen his lungs and keep the fever away. He is now home, trying to relax, eat, and work through the pain. He gets his black cast on Friday and at that time the doctors will check the site, etc.

Keep on Rockin' Randy!
