Mr Lillys dad, the old cantankerous fella that he is, is havin surgery tomorrow to remove a kidney that has a cancerous growth. So far all the tests show that it's just in that one kidney, keep him in your prayers, we'll be at MD Anderson Cancer Institute in Houston with him all day tomorrow for sure. Then a hospital stay of about 5 or 6 days. We'd appreciate it if you'd keep him in your prayers.
Thanks, Lilly

Our prayers are with your father-in-law, Jersey Lilly. Hope he gets along just fine, and isn't incapacitated for too long.

Thanks again ya'll, he came thru surgery real good, no complications and the cancer was confined to the one kidney. He'll be in there for about 5 days, if everything goes like it should. Then when he comes home, I get to play nurse maid (bless his heart LOL) :lol:

I dunno what kinda patient he'll be....or what kinda nurse maid I'll be.....kiddin of course..I'm sure we'll have as much fun as possible.

Yesterday evenin we made a trip to the bookstore, and I found a book I knew he'd like to read, lost and buried treasure tales of texas......he loves those kinda books and has done a lil bitta lookin over the years. Well, I knew he wouldnt be needin it today, so he recieved a "half-read" book when we left the hospital this evenin, it was real interestin readin, and I told him I wanted to borrow it so I could finish it after he's done with it.

Nothin to eat tuesday
Nothin to eat wednesday

Nothin to eat friday
Finally toast and one scrambled egg saturday mornin with instructions that if all went well he could come home Sunday.....

Quote: "I want real food...meat and taters....somethin good to eat!!!!
So I cooked him Roast and Taters, Gravy, Green beans and he ordered a coconut pie.......had it all ready for supper after he got home this afternoon and took a nap. Took it all down to their house, along with the video from Lil Lilly's One act play, and had a great evenin with them.

I was right!! He's back, talked to him and he said he was gonna lay around till lunch time, and I'll take him somethin to eat then. Two weeks he can't do much of anything for sure, but I'mma bettin that the closer to the end of the two weeks its gonna be harder to keep him corralled. Yesterday he was out waterin his garden before we ate......
