Well when they say they left his incision open; They AIN''T kidding.
OMG- that was pretty wild to see.
They gave him some good meds before they changed the dressing.

His numbers look good today but he had a fever this morning. I don''t know what that''s all about.
They continue to slowly lower his BP medicine and raise his feed amount.
He seems to be tolerating both.

He''s healing nicely.
That''s it for now. They''ll change the dressing again on Friday.
Our boy continues to point toward that exit door. God Bless Him!

 

[Kaleigh]

The finger pointing for the door is a very good sign Nan. How high was the fever???

 

[belle]

glad to hear he''s tolerating his feeds now and getting the bp meds lowered....that''s very good news!

 

[strmrdr]

prayers continue.

HI:

Without getting into the wound details (however tempted, given my ten years working in Burns and Plastics) , my experience with the VAC was that the old dressing might look "narly" but that is "expected".

Good news that he is tolerating things well!!

cheers--Sharon

 

[mrssalvo]

yay!! i''m so glad he''s doing better. I know how anxious he must be to get home. Sounds like things are really moving in the right direction

prayers continue

So happy to hear Angello is feeling better!

I hope he continues to feel stronger everyday and keeps pointing at that exit door until it is all but a faded memory!

Hello everyone.

The "Pointer" is doing Fine (to quote Storm)

Lasix has been turned off (it gets the extra fluid off the body)
They took the oxygen monitors off his forehead.
They took out the foley (ouch) catherater (spelling).
His feeds are inching up slowly- his numbers look great and he''s Steady as Freddy.

I''m so happy for our little soldier. What a miracle.

here''s a pic from today

 

[noobie]

That''s great Nan! Hoping for continued good news

 

[hoorray]

So glad to hear it Nan! It just breaks my heart to see all those "things" connected to his little body. I hope it continues to go as well as today!
