Saturday

Hi all. I saw my dad during the afternoon yesterday. He slept most of the time. Apparently, he has been staying up all night and sleeping during the day. His system is definitely backwards. He did wake up for a few minutes and he said my name and mumbled a few other things. He looked around a bit and then went back to sleep. They would like to try and get him on a normal schedule.

We are still encouraging him to cough to bring up any of the residual stuff that is in his lungs/throat as a result of his breathing tube. They are also keeping an eye on his kidneys because he has had some problems as a result of the infection and low point during the beginning of last week. His skin is still pretty red too but hopefully with less medications, it will start to look normal again.

Again, my dad is on the 5th floor in the wing 3600 and he is in bed 4. Visitors are always welcome. Thank you all for the thoughts, love, prayers and kind comments on here.
