ICU Day #14 / Hospital Day #47
Kathy is resting this morning. She is still heavily medicated. But there are signs that she is starting to stir. Last night I brought her a CD player and her CDs. The nurses offered to play them for her.
I spent the morning opening and reading her many get-well cards that have arrived at home this past week. I've taped them to her room wall so she'll see them and her nurses and docs will also know about how you are thinking of her and the boys.
Now that Kathy's breathing numbers are getting better, they've exchanged her vent for a kinder more gentler system that can assist her. It will help her meet her pressure settings rather than force them. If she continues to progress, she could be off the vent by next weekend. I would hope that they'd reduce her sedation after that time. I'll have to talk to her doctors on Monday to find out their plan for sure.
