Guest guest Posted October 21, 2006 Report Posted October 21, 2006 Lots of excitement this morning! Mom's NG tug was taken out and she is much more comfortable. Her other groin IV was taken out and she's getting ready to get her last neck IV out. Once that is done she'll have one IV in her arm and she gets to move to a step down room and out of the TICU (transplant ICU) !!!! She's really excited because now she'll be able to get some real rest. Oh, and she got to get up yesterday and sit in a chair. Simon is doing good too. His epidural broke last night when he was moving so the docs went ahead and took it out-only a few hours before it was scheduled anyway. He's now on an IV drip that he controls himself. It's definitely not as good as an epidural that blocks all pain, so he feels a dull ache all the time. He was also up and walking today. The docs said he may get to be discharged and out to the family house by as early as Monday. Lets keep our fingers crossed. Pat and Blake left today and we'll follow tomorrow, but there will still be updates-don't worry. Thanks again for all the blessings. Mom enjoys hearing them and also how many hits are on the site. P.S. You can't send flowers/plants to either of the floors they are on, sorry. I found that out the hard way:) Quote
