Coffee? Tea? Serenity?

Dad phoned and I was able to receive the following information:

• He is trying to convince the nurse on duty to let him go outside; she is not allowing him to.  Hmm...why would he want to go outside in the nasty, cold, wet weather we are having today?
• He was excited to have coffee this morning; disappointed that it was decaff. 
• He has less pain and soreness than yesterday.
• He mentioned concern in being hoarse; after effects of the surgery, I'm sure.  I noticed that the hoarseness in improved from yesterday.
• He's been up since 4am and ready to go home NOW.
• He had a very restful night with sleep aid meds.

Yesterday, Mom asked the surgeon if he felt this surgery might help Dad to be more patient and less aggrevated.  His reply to that was, "There is NO surgery to fix THAT!"

It is now 10am.  I have not heard from either Mom or Dad since 6am.  Can a hospital bann a patient from returning to their facilities for care ????? 

We best be praying for Mom at this moment.  I am sure that she too is fit to be tied as she awaits orders for discharge with Dad.
