So Doctor Birch was by this morning, to do his rounds and took a good look at Deuce.
He said, "Wow, what an ugly mug!"
No, not really.
What he did say was that his progress is very good... really good in fact. His tube feeding has been increased while his IV food slows down today, which is also good news in that it means he's increasing the amount of food he's eating "normally" and is able to digest it pretty well.
So, right now it looks like Deuce-man will be discharged on Monday back to his home, and friends, at Quality Living!!!

Deucer,
Great to hear that you are headed home. I took the time to check out the QLI link. I was very impressed. It looks like you are going back to an awesome home. You will continue to be in our prayers.
PS - I like your movie list.
Again, glad to hear you are headed home and look forward to hear about your continued progress.
Go Florida State

Deucer,
After thinking about it... my recommendation for your top 5 funniest movies is Animal House. It is an oldie but a goodie. It has a little bit of everything and definately needs to be considered.

Hey Deuce!
Glad to hear your almost ready to go home! Thank your sis for me, this blog is great to know up to date whats happening in your life! Happy belated Holiday & as for the funniest movies ever.. I would have to say the 40 year old virgin, have you seen it Deuce, it's kinda raunchy, but I laughed my butt off! Keep getting better cuz!!! Love from Chi-town, Cuz Lisa & Mike
I agree with the Doctor's assessment, what an ugly mug !!! Mary, it sounds like we are experiencing the same fun that you did, Monday night was bad for me and Michele has been down for the last couple of days. I mention that because I know Deuce will take delight in the fact that I was not feeling well because, well, thats just how he is. The image he likes to portray is one of an angel, but I know how he is, and I think you understand what I am talking about also. Deuce, I am glad you are going back to QLI, Michele and I will stop by the next time we are up there.

Home is a good thing Ask Martha Stewart, or anyone trying to drive in Seward this afternoon! YIKES! Yup Jon Jost is right. Animal House has to be on the list.. Did you know that Sharon used to be able to quote the ENTIRE court room speech from that movie... just a little family history there! OH Mary dear.. Frankie won 10 games a lot of years... Callahan has trouble beating an egg! But you got the right idea... will you keep the blog open when you get to QLI? Just wondered... Jac
PS Does Lisa really know a 40 year old virgin??? WOW...
Hi Deucer,
We've never met, but Jackie Hughes gave me the short rundown during my recent visit back "home" to Seward. I'm trying to remember where your dad Steve is in the order of the Smith Brothers (not the bearded cough drop guys) They were all older than me but my older brother Wayne and Elmer used to hang out a lot together and sometimes I was lucky enough that they let me tag along. When my family lived in a house that was burned down for firefighting practice before the land was cleared and the new Seward library was built, Wayne and your uncle elmer used to figure out all kinds of wierd stuff to do in the shed we called the "Model T Garage." It seemed like voodoo to me and I was just young enough to imagine they might raise a real spook or two. I remember there were always candles involved, especially red ones that looked like blood when they dripped. Sometimes there'd be lead shot from a shotgun shell taken apart to get out the powder, which was more or less for fireworks, not for explosives. In the daytime there were other activities involving fire, especially lighting our plastic soldiers and watching (and hearing)the burning drops of melted plastic. That was really cool! But maybe uncle Elmer was not involved in that part. Ask him. I'm sure he'll deny it.
