post-procedure report

Peter came out of a simple diagnostic procedure about an hour ago. The scope that the doctors sent down to look at his stomach found an area of severe inflammation, and samples were taken (biopsy). We'll get those results in a few days. Meanwhile, Peter can eat soft foods and drink water again (thank goodness! his requests for drinks today were hard to deny).

He seems in good spirits now, continuing to receive sensitive care in the ICU at Valley Hospital, we expect for a few more days, depending on these test results. Janice and Duane are especially grateful to Father Louie Vitale for his night vigils which allow us to sleep and be more alert in the day time.
