Tomorrow Dad Comes Home

We packed up most of Dad's things tonight, and tomorrow he is expected to come home. He had a pretty good last day at VGH, spending most of his waking time either with Mike or with Mom. He even had a little bit of an appetite as well, eating a few pieces of leftover sushi.

Dad still welcomes and very much enjoys visitors, but he has been dozing off during visits lately and is sleeping a lot more. The doctor said that this could be caused by ammonia buildup in his system, a problem which occurs when the liver loses some of its ability to process toxins.

We are really looking forward to having him at home.
