Dad’s neurological tests this morning are looking good! Nurse said he’s doing well that he’s following commands and able to move around. They feel confident enough that they’ve decided they don’t need to get another head ct today like they had planned. Which, I mean it’s not a guarantee but it’s good news.
Leave it to my dad to be so agitated about being in the hospital that he makes us all worry there's something wrong with his brain though.
Apparently he’s not completely off the vents but doesn’t need too much assistance with him and so they’re kinda on trial to see how he does as they remove that support.
They’re gonna get another ct of his abdomen to make sure he doesn’t have any blockages or anything because he was still throwing up - but the other nurse said the other day that it could be just because of the tubes down his throat so I’m not too worried about it.
Overall things seem to be improving.
I feel less shitty today.
We had snow and mum doesn’t feel confident driving in it and my brother needs to sleep because he worked last night so we’re not going down today. Which sucks a little because I want him to know that we’re coming to see him and we haven’t just stuck him in the hospital and are waiting things out, and that’s kinda how it feels when we’re not there. But also I know he would probably not feel great about having us see him in a hospital bed either so I’m trying not to worry about that too much.
