Evergreen and I stayed with dad until about 4:15 today; we would have liked to stay longer, but I had to pick something up by 4:30 and we had shared a ride in. Dad's condition is about the same as it was in the morning, which is hopefully steadily improving. I'd love to see him off the vent sooner rather than later, and when I listened to his lungs they didn't sound half bad; just some wheezing in the upper left lobe. Dad is now entirely off of IV anti-hypertensives, which is also good news. His edema seems a little better after his dose of Lasix today. All in all, today was a pretty good day and we hope he continues on this trend of improvement and good news.
Thanks to everyone who has both helped us in any way and or offered to do so. It is overwhelmingly kind and we really appreciate the support from you all.
