HE'S OUT OF ICU!!

It's hard to believe, but he was moved to the step-down unit this afternoon. No more tubes, IV only when meds are given. His head is much clearer now too. He has no memory of the past few weeks. He can vaguely remember being in for pneumonia but that's as far as it goes. At least he doesn't remember any pain so that's a blessing. I've had to tell him some things that happened. He was really upset when I told him about having to be tied down & why. He was afraid he had hurt someone. We assured him no one was hurt but he was still upset by it. A nurse came in & talked to him about it & I think he was satisfied then. He's able to sit up a little more (with support), but at least he's not sliding down the bed now. His mind is still a little muddled. He is positive that he has been working on a computer program & it's been hard to convince him that he has not had a computer there. He also says he hasn't slept at all in the past couple of weeks. He's obviously been dreaming & it explains why he was always on about the computer whenever we could get anything out of him.

God is so good & He is the Great Physician. Thank you Lord.
