Daddy had another good night, his night nurse said he slept very quietly all night. He did tell us this morning that his head is still hurting him. For some reason he's had a horrible headache since Wednesday morning. It gets so bad that he starts shaking all over. We've asked the Internal Medicine Doctors about this, but they are not sure why he's having the headaches. We will ask Dr. Chen about it when he sees Daddy today. Dr. Chen and the wound specialist are supposed to be by sometime this morning to change all the wound vacs.
Daddy's kidneys are functioning much better. They are almost back to what they were when he came into the hospital, which was not great at 1.2 - 1.3. His level was down to 1.5 this morning. His white blood count has also improved. It was 13 on Monday and down to 10.4 today (should be around 8 according to Dr. Chen).
They have put in the orders for Daddy to go to PCU as soon as a bed is open that is equip ed for the ventilator. They don't know when this will happen though, it could be 2 days and it could be a week.
I'll update blog again this afternoon after Dr. Chen sees him.
