Just a quickie post for this morning.
Judi had another restful night. This morning, as they were continuing to reduce the paralyzing drugs and sedation, do you know what she did? If you know how stubborn she is, you can probably guess.
She woke up for several minutes, and immediately looked for Steve. She is fighting hard to be back with us soon. They did adjust the medication so that she will stay asleep for her own safety. Right now, if she were to become agitated or confused, it could cause problems with her blood pressure or her back injury.
However, this was a nice piece of good news I thought I would share.
Also, we have had some loved ones asking about when they can come visit. Right now, she is in a clean room and her visitors are limited to just the immediate family. This is all for her safety. They want to make sure that the doctors and nurses have the space and comfort they need to be able to tend to her to the best of their ability. Infection is also a big concern with trauma patients, so that is another reason to limit who comes onto the floor.
As soon as it is possible for her to have visitors, we will post here. She will be happy to see how many people care about her and want to wish her well. But right now, the best thing for her is to keep praying and wishing her well.
Thank you for all the prayers and words of uplifting.

ReplyDeleteHi Judi,
