Thursday night I visited Greg! When I arrived, Jenn was already there and he was just starting to wake up after a breathing treatment. He was exhausted, so he didn't respond very much to our conversation even though you could tell he wanted to. He gave me some good hand squeezes and struggled to stay awake while we were there. Jenn took off to go help Judy with a shower and I stayed with Greg a while longer. His blood pressure was steadily higher then we have been seeing it (about 145/70). He is completely off blood pressure medication again. I stayed with Greg for a while until he was ready for me to go :)
I spoke with his nurse who told me that he was on the C-pap (breathing on his own) for 4 hours that morning! That is fantastic and no wonder he is so tired! It is a great improvement and we look forward to him continuing to improve so they can take the tube out.
Friday Judy went to the hospital and had her stitches out. She can now keep the bandage off of her leg (which was irritating her) and she can shower without wrapping her leg in a bag! Woohoo! She is healing nicely, but it hurt to take out all of those stitches. Wendy said there were about 30! She did great though and afterwards Wendy and Judy had a visit with Greg. Greg didn't have c-pap time today, he was too tired from the day before- so they will try again Saturday. His numbers all still look good. He is a fighter. Keep praying for Greg, especially his lungs so that we can get that tube out and help ease some of his frustration!
