Daddy Update.

He's doing better every day. He says that he's great. He is so grateful that he received this kidney. He said that he is so blessed to have the friends that he does and the family that he does. His phone rings off the hook. He just loves it. Although he is tired, he wants to talk to whomever calls him. I believe he even tried to propose to the nutritionist because she told him he could start eating all the things that he loves that he hasn't been able to eat in the last 4 1/2 years. I have been printing out bowl picks for him off his computer and as I scan the emails for these picks, I'm touched by the other emails that his friends have been sending around and forwarding to him. My dad is loved by so many people, it's hard to wrap my mind around it. We as a family are so blessed and thankful for all the love his friends have for him. I told him yesterday that I wanted to go with him to Colorado this summer to go to the party the umpires are going to throw him. His response was that "they aren't going to do that, that would be crazy. Why would they throw a party for me?" I know that there will be a party for him. If I have to ride on the roof, I will be there. He is loved by so many across the USA. Ana wants to have a Burrito and Margarita party at her house for him, when he's well enough. Santa made an early delivery this year. As in Phil fashion, he has made friends with the entire nursing staff here. I don't think he knows how to make enemies. He is simply a good patient. He is willing to do whatever it takes to get better. He is so excited about this. I know that he is looking forward to his upcoming tournaments and getting to go without having to schedule his treatments. I hope that Mom and Dad can maybe go on a vacation this summer.
