Made it through Christmas

We made it through another season of Christmas with the family.  The weekend before Christmas, we all gathered together for the Janszen and the Morgan Christmas.  While all the family was gathered together out at the Ranch, Dad got a piece of chicken stuck for about 24 hours.  Sounds gross, but it wasn't as bad as you think.  It was bad in that, for about 24 hours, he was not able to drink or eat.  Monday morning, Mom and Dad headed in to Dr. Bismar's office, and he was able to retrieve the chicken, keeping Dad from dehydrating.  This was not as big of a scare, since we have gone through this before, we just really felt bad for Dad.  He has to be careful with his eating, and make sure he chews very carefully from now on.  It has been a long time since he has had food stuck.
He is heading to MD Anderson in January for his 6 month checkup, but while Dr. Bismar was retrieving the chicken, he looked around with the scope, and said things looked good, so we are hoping for a good report in January.

Thanks for keeping up with Dad.  Happy New Year from our family to yours,
