Today was another good day in Boston! Dad was off of the ventilator 2 times today for 2 hours each. The goal was 3 times, but later this evening his blood pressure and heart rate were up a bit, so they decided not to push it. --I think he was just so darn excited to see me! Too much excitement! ;)
Since I have been here, Barbara and I have been conned with longing looks, to rub his legs and feet with PURELL! Yes, the hand sanitizer!! He has had tight stockings on to help prevent blood clots, and they get itchy....apparently the cool of the purell feels good, because he BEGS us to do it!! He seems to enjoy the time without the stockings, and has made me promise to do it atleast 3 times a day! Now, thats love! ;)
Tomorrow, he gets to have the drainage tube from his stomach removed, and he is very excited!! He will be one tube lighter!!
Tomorrow is another day, and he has come a long ways! I will keep you all posted!!
