Saw dad for only a couple of minutes today. He was quite alert this morning, talked to Wendy a bit on the phone and was somewhat clear and understandable. He spent most of the day sleeping with intermittent jaunts down the hallway with his ever-changing footmen at his side. He's had lots of visitors and it's been great to see how much everyone cares.
They have decided to try to drop his dilaudid from 2mg every hour to 1.5mg. Hopefully that will help to perk him up a little bit.
It seems he's been trying to tell us something and ask us questions, but he either forgets the thought before he gets it all out or it comes out jumbled up. We're pretty sure he's trying make sure that we're o.k. He seems really worried about us. He gives us lots of hugs and kisses when we leave or when he sees that we're really upset. He gets a sad, worried look on his face and it seems to confuse him a bit. It's actually quite sweet - him, comforting us.
Dad with me and Owen |
