Dad had a very busy day, There were several people up to see him and he sort of opened his eyes to look at them. While Mom and I were in his room he seemed to wake quite a bit, he got quite frustrated trying to get up and trying to talk, it took a bit to settle him back down. He is still sporadically following commands to move his left side, there is still no response on his right side although he does move his leg, while sleeping. It seems the side of his face is not drooping as badly.
Phyllis (his nurse today) said his lungs seem to be doing much better,and his blood levels are doing quite well. There still is no set date for his tracheotmy, so we are still waiting on that. They are still giving him an antibiotic for the infections. The swelling in his extremities appears to be the same.
Dad is being very well cared for, he is quite clean and someone shaves his face regularly. The room is bright and clean, for the first time today, they turned the TV on for him! They also seem to always take the time to talk and explain what is happening and why they are doing different things.
