Janell's sister just called, having just recently arrived in Baton Rouge,


and having just spoken to Janell (which explains the busy signal on the


number we usually call).





When they left the hospital this morning to return to Baton Rouge, Larry


was still quite still in bed, still hooked up to the ventilator. But


through the day, he was taken off the machinery and said that he wanted


to sit up and get out of bed. So .. they let him sit in a chair, which


all were happy to see. He also indicated he was hungry, and ate two


bananas and a couple of crackers.  His long term memory is fine, and he's


been able to discuss his case with the doctors and nurses, but he doesn't


remember that Thecla was there, or that Janell's sisters were there.  His


chest tube is still  doing its job. His arm seems to be doing okay. 





He told Janell he's had enough of the hospital, thank you, and is ready


to move on.





Will wonders never cease.  


Blessed Be.
