March 25, 2011

Pops had a rough morning yesterday. He is just so weak and tired. He has had the hiccups for the past several days and they are starting to become very painful. He perked up a little in the afternoon and evening. The night last night was not one of the better ones he has had. The hiccups are causing him so much discomfort. During the night the nurse called and got his pain medication increased and also got some Thorazine ordered to hopefully help with the hiccups. He didn't rest well at all and when I left this morning was still sleeping and wasn't interested in getting up for breakfast.

We did finally get the pathology report yesterday. He has metastasizing melanoma. It really doesn't change the prognosis much. We are just taking a day at a time.

Wanda had a follow up with Dr. Woodruff and he was pleased with her progress.
