Morning:
Today John was tired, and said he didn't sleep because the nurse kept waking him every hour. I was there at 9. The docters came in and discussed his case and his paralized vocal cord, and said that was a wait and see issue, and also that if he continued breathing on his own,(they are doing a straight 12 hours today), he should be out of ICU by around Monday. Either he isn't understanding time, or he has short term memory issues still, because he kept asking when I have to go and what time I would be back. About three times I told him, but he knew what time they took him off the vent this morning. 8 am. He asked for books last night, so I brought him in a few, and when I checked, he was in his chair reading. : )
Evening:
Ok, he couldn't really read because he couldn't hold the book by himself. When I got there after work today, he was nearly asleep, being worn out from breathing on his own today for 12 hours in a row. I sat with him and let him fall asleep, messaging his legs and feet for him, and I think he will sleep fairly well tonight and left at 10:30. Wow, home before 11:30. They weighed him today, and he stood up holding this bar on the scale by himself. That's the good news. When John went in for his biopsy, he weighed 205 pounds. You have to know that from working out 2 hours a day, with cardio and weights he had a lot of muscle. He now weighs 170 pounds, with nary a muscle in site. I told him, it could be worse.
