Another big day for Conor. He was moved from the ICU to the Trauma Unit. As said before ... a step down in care .. a step closer to recovery. The Trauma Unit is not like the ICU ... visiting hours are from 3 - 8 pm....still only two at a time.
Conor went for the MRI and they found some brain fluid and spinal fluid where it shouldn't be. Unfortunately, no one is around to interpret this for me ... another trauma came in which required the attention of all the ortho guys. I will let you know when I have more information. He was also scheduled today to have his leg slits closed .... that too was bumped.
The dressing on his abdominal incision has been removed ... and the staples look clean. He's lying on his back (the neck injury) and is terribly uncomfortable. He doesn't like to cough ... obviously ... but seems to be clearing his lungs admirably under the circumstances. The trauma unit has asked that I bring in shampoo and deodorant and other grooming type stuff including clothes etc! Needless to say ... I never thought this request would come so soon.
I'm keeping my chin up ... harder today than yesterday ... but no one promised me a smooth road. All in all .... just happy to be on a road.
Prayers required tonight ....
