Day 34 - Out of ICU

Dad's ICU nurse just called me and let me know he has been moved out of ICU and up to the 6th floor. He is in room 611 if you would like to visit with him. She said he was talking a lot and making good sense. He mumbles so it is a bit hard to understand him. She said he didn't remember why he was there and didn't remember much of anything since he got there. She said that was expected. She said his blood pressure was normal, he was tolerating the tube feedings well, and that he was having no trouble breathing as long as he kept the "tent" on. When he doesn't have that, his oxygen level drops to around 80% which is low. With it on, it is between 95 and 100. Please pray that he does well out of ICU and that he continues to improve. The next step is to get him into a rehab facility (aka nursing home).

That's great news! Perhaps Roger can fill in the blanks in Jack's memory. He will be a 'Papa Jack' to another little grandaughter in only 7 more days (and I'll be a Mimi again) - I'm excited! I pray that God will grant Jack a full recovery and that he will be closer to his family than ever. My very sincere thanks to Roger for being there for Jack. He's a true friend - the kind everyone needs. Also, my prayers continue for Kathy to have a safe delivery for a healthy baby Sarah Faith.
