They still haven't replaced the drain to the middle of his brain yet. The doctor said most likely they will replace it because when they start reducing his meds Again it will help him. His icp is at 13 right now. The nurse said she has been able to use the sedation meds to control his icp today. He is still on the paralytic and the dehydrating meds but she hasn't had to increase them to keep the control. That's a good thing. The doctor just checked in with the nurse. She's poked and prodded Tony and not had a big reaction. The doctor looked at me and said "good, hopefully we are turning a corner.". . Thank you Lord!

Great to hear several positives today. Praying that this continues. Also praying that you and Mike are getting some rest.
ReplyDeleteThanks Karl. I can't say enough how much we appreciate the prayers. We are taking little cat naps during the shift changes but when he is having a bad time, i'ld rather just sit in a chair in his room and watch the monitors. Terry's house has been great because we can walk there in 5 minutes to take a nap.
