I am not sure what the number means, but here is hoping for a 2 or less...

Starlette,

We are sending our prayers along as well. I do hope your dad is soon home and healthy again. I do not know what the numbers mean either, but hopefully they will go down and stay where they are suppose to. Family is so important at times of crisis; sending him healing love.

Karen

Good evening everyone.

I'll post what I posted on FB:

Found out today that Dad will be moving to a regular room tomorrow or the next day. Also, today sounds like they've begun therapy with his right knee. Also the liver number went down to 2.6 which is awesome! We were also told today that number was up to a 10 at some point. My word Pops, how do you survive these things!!! What this man has been through! The thought of him coming home is getting brighter and brighter. Again, thank you for all your prayers.

Starlette

I am afraid you are going to have to have a talk with your dad... We were pulling for a 2 or less. A 2.6 is close, but let's remember that the target is 2 or less...

This is excellent news. Your dad is a real fighter. More thoughts and prayers headed your way...
