Morning George and Gerry.

George, how is your dad doing? I noticed your FB post last night.

Dad is doing ok as far as the fistula is concerned. It is working and healing nicely according to the doctor.

Still a concern is he is not eating much at all. Dad said one of the doctors told him that he may be given ensure to get him some nourishment.

He is still on the heparin drip and is also taking a coumadin tablet to help with the blood clot in his right leg. The leg looks swollen to me although the doctor said it is not as big as when he came in. Could have fooled me. lol

They started therapy, taking little steps. His right leg is still weak from the swelling.

Still can't get him to drink much fluids so they have to hydrate him.

Other than those things Dad is doing remarkedly well considering he is 84.

Thanks for asking.

Sounds like he is in good hands. Will continue to keep him in my thoughts.

That's the only way to get those tires on there.


My f 350 has a 3" Body lift. I used to run 35 x 12.50's on it

No inspection until it's sold. Plus it's over 10,000 gvw, so there is no bumper height law
