SUNDAY, JUNE 28, 2009 TOUGH DAY

Pain...pain...pain. But, there were encouraging signs - Travis was given a Patient Control Analgesic (PCA) pump for self-administering pain control - more IV medications discontinued - up and sitting in a chair - and, his first real food, jello for breakfast, soup for lunch, and meat and vegetables for supper. And, wouldn't you believe it...he cleaned up those despised vegetables! "You never thought you'd live to see the day that would happen!" Hospital food will do it to you.

And, typically, 10:00 pm is Travis' magic hour - new life, second wind, and that old sarcastic humor. Yep...it's Travis, alright, and he'll fight it through...and win!
