Morning Zephyr

Good Afternoon All.

The situation at the hospital is "confusing".
He seems to have made a bit of progress, but....

One Dr. is "cautiously optimistic".
Another sees a bit of improvement.
Another says we have a long way to go, and he is not progressing as we would expect. Consider his condition "critical".
Another Dr. says he is a very strong man. Is still young and has a very strong heart. Should pull through, but....
Then another says "prepare for the worst"....

Personally, trying to be as objective as I can, I think we have made progress.
When he was first admitted, he was still on the downward slide, with that eventually resulting in the medical coma, being intubated with a machine breathing for him at 100% o2. Now, that have lightened the coma and while still intubated, have reduced the o2 to 70%. His blood o2 is ranging from 88 to 92%. Not the greatest, but not the worst.
And, after loosing 3Kg, about 6 lbs, he has gained it back and a bit more. And they constantly check to be sure he isn't retaining water. They have automatic pressure "cuffs" on his legs to "massage" his legs and not allow any fluid / clots to build up.

They still have 3 IV pumps pushing in the drugs and a pump pushing in liquid food to his stomach.

Morning Jarheads
Started the morning off with light rain and snow mixed temps 36 and windy.

My belly started the morning off with country ham, boiled egg, toasted bagle and of course ginger snaps dipped in black coffee to round everything off.

Rocky hope you are feeling better
Fred hope your son is better today.
Hope all of you are feeling good.

If you could see this little baby goat who is 10 days old you would laugh out loud. She jumps around like she has springs on her feet. When Karen is making movies of her she almost can't keep up. Its always amazing how any baby of any kind make you smile.
