tobins brother took a pic of him this afternoon and here is one from monday too he is still the same but when i left about an hour ago i told him i had to go get the kids and he shook his head and squeezed my hand !. they still have him on the vent and he is still tied down but any progress is exactly that-progress .so i am happy for now because he at least tried to communicate with me . please continue to pray for him he's still not out of the woods yet....jenny

Jenny - I haven't been on as much lately, so I'm just now finding out about his surgery. It's too bad that the hospital didn't have him sign a privacy statement to allow them to talk to you. Especially when they know he's not married, you would think they would ask ahead of time if he would allow his life partner to be kept in the loop! Anyway, my prayers are with Tobin and you. My son just finished his radioiodine body scan to see if all of his papillary thyroid cancer is finally gone after his 2 ablations. Then I have my 2 scans next month and am praying that there aren't anymore mestasteses in my liver or anywhere else. It's the pits having to deal with all of this s--t, but as they say.........one day at a time! Hang in there and tell Tobin I'm praying that this will be the last surgery he has to go through to make him well again!!!

my thoughts are with you guys.
as soon as he is feeling better have him sign a medical information release form and a consent form and a family waiver form with your name on them so that the hospital can give you that information and you can visit as though you were family. If you have access to a lawyer they will have the forms just needs his signature and a non relative witness to the signing. from my understanding
the laws changed so much recently that they have to protect themselves they wont even give out the information to parents or family members with out permission first.

we have and have had power of attorney papers here ,but he hasnt signed them he kept saying that we would never need them he has been pretty adamant about it everytime i would nag or pull the paperwork out he was like , God looks out , its not that bad-well it got that bad and the surgeon wouldnt talk to me he would however talk to bob tobins brother me and my mom were the only people left at the hospital this morning at 2 am when thy had to put the pic line in and they had to have permission to do it so i called his brother up and was like bob the surgeon has to do some more stuff to tobin say yes to whatever he wants they were going to call his parents and they have flat out said if they had to take care of him they would put him in a hospice home and all they care about is how much it costs ,i hate those people .but we have it worked out that as soon as tobin is conscious the hospital social worker is going to come and witness all that paperwork when he signs it-problem solved.yay 1 down 43,698 more to go i got my kids together now its back to the hospital in midland i go thank you guys for your prayers and well wishes, love you....jenny

he's such a fighter, and you're such a great support to him, i hope things work out.
be careful... a lot of what he signs may be able to be fought if his family really wants to. It is basically like how if your parent gets terminally sick, if you weren't already on accounts and such for years, things can get fought.
let him (and yourself) know i'm thinking of you both.

Sometimes men can be so stubborn, huh? Well, I hope all that legal stuff works out when he can sign. Wish him well and you take care of yourself, too! He'll need you in tip top shape for a while. He's very lucky to have you Jen. Blessings!!!

I think we have a winner!
Glad to see the improvement. You two are so blessed to have met each other. It's obvious that you two love each other very much. You're both a credit to humanity.
