Nov 8, 2008 Bernie's Blood Clot and Lutefisk Dinner

Hi All
It is Saturday morning and mom and I are getting ready to go back to the hospital to visit dad. He went back in the hospital on Thursday night as he develeped some swelling in his right ankle Wednesday night and after going to the doc and ER on Thursday they found he had a blood clot. So he is now back at Mercy and resting in the hospital bed with Heprin IV blood thinner dripping in, to dissolve the clot.
Mom and I will head to EP later to pick up relatives Esther, Jean and Margaret and then a quick visit with Bernie at the hospital before going to the scandinavian dinner of Lutefisk and Meatballs at mom and dad's church.
As of last night. He will still start his radiation on Monday afternoon.
Hope all is well with everyone
Karla
