All in all, the last twenty four hours have gone as well as we could have hoped. Seven hours of surgery seem to have gone well and Dad had a good night, albeit with a few pain issues, which I think are now under control. He remains in intensive care, but there are already noises about moving him back to the ward, which is hugely encouraging.
Mole and the halves (George, Hugh and Alice) all came round for supper last night, which was, I think, a good move. With the added diversion of Real Madrid against Tottenham and Mole's birthday to "celebrate" we had as happy an evening as you could have expected.
Mole had been in to see Dad once he was in intensive care and was much cheered by how he seemed.....as comfortable as could be expected and certainly looking better than she feared. I think she was, understandably, massively relieved to have got through yesterday, as we all were.
I spoke to her this morning and Hammersmith Hospital have told her that they are considering moving him out of intensive care as early as today. On the one hand, this is great news.......on the other, I just hope they don't move him too early.
