December 11 update

Vital Statistix

When we checked in to the hospital this morning, R’s vitals were awesome. Blood pressure = 99/61 (on the low side, but that’s fairly normal for R). Temperature = 97.7ºF (tumor fevers long gone). My favorite: Oxygen saturation = 99%. Last time we were here, they could only get him up to the acceptable threshold for normal (92) with 3 or 4 litres of oxygen helping him out! (Mine was 97 last time I was at the doctor.) No oxygen tubes this time. The lung tumors must be dead.
