A Balancing Act

Dennis is still in the hospital and will most probably remain there throughout the weekend. The doctors want to keep an eye on him to make sure he does not develop an infection and to balance his pain medications. Getting his pain under control is a high priority right now. It is a delicate balancing act, getting just the right dosage to control the pain but not make him too hallucinatory. Dennis did get out of bed on Friday and walk around a bit, although every move exhausts him. Being in his best Dennis mode, he does approach each of these hurdles with humor and great determination. He needs to wear a warrior costume for Halloween!
