Wednesday update (morning)

Dr. Henry thinks Dale will be in the hospital "for a while". He does not think surgery will be tolerated, so he's hoping that medication and movement can remove this small bowel obstruction.

Dale's respiratory therapist thinks his sleep apnea is really affecting his sleep at night and further causing him to drop off to sleep "at the drop of a hat" during the day. We'll address this again on another day, for now
we're focused on the small bowel obstruction.

I will call MD Anderson with a new update of Small Bowel Obstruction for Dr. Rice.

(I'm home for a quick lunch and then back to the hospital)
