What a great day! Dan was able to sleep for 5 hours last night (me too!). And the PT and OT came by again this morning, and Dan was able to get up and walk around the floor one time, then sit up in a chair for an hour, all without any afib! The cardiologist thinks they have the right medicine and timing, however he said the afib might come back, but we are grateful for a good morning. He is eating very well. Get this, part of his breakfast this morning was a high protein chocolate shake! Where do we sign up?!
The doctor ordered the catheter to be used again to help the kidneys a little longer with the fluid retention. And the wound nurse decided to replace the dressing on his 2 leg sores.
Funny of the day: A few nurses were helping change Dan's bed and helping him clean up while I was out of the room chatting with Dan's folks. We walked back in a few minutes later and the nurses told us that Dan had been flirting with them! I looked at him and he was grinning. I told him "the wife leaves for a minute and you start checking out the nurses." He nodded and said he has the prettiest nurses and told them so. Leave it to Dan to keep everyone laughing.
Praise God who gives songs in the night,
Debbie and Dan
