Can you say what a blur???
I thought I would remember everything...that it would all stay fresh in my mind. David's stay in the ICU really became one day much the same as the next. On the vent and having such a hard time breathing it was scary. Recovering from pneumonia and trying to use parts of his body that weren't listening was difficult for David. In fact, here we are on day 17 of our stay in the TMC and that part is still difficult and tiring. His troublesome cough kept waking him up last night. The lack of sleep really does make a difference in how much activity he can tolerate.
So many folks took care of us during the past two weeks...bringing us food, keeping us company
- My Mom, My Sister Maureen and her family
- Mike and Jill - thank you so much for giving David so much time Mike... he loves it!
- Doug and Jaci
