Recovery Day #2

John has now moved from the ICU to the PCU!
He has no more IVs, catheter, and is no longer on oxygen!
The new pain med they started him on seems to be working well.
His mom and I are sitting in his room with him now
as he sleeps and his breathing is music to our ears!
We love that he is resting comfortably :]

They've put John on some IV fluids to try and get
his blood pressure up.
It's been staying pretty low since surgery.
If his pressure does not increase
they may have to move him back to the ICU
in order to give him more meds to bring his
pressure up.
Pray this doesn't happen!

They had him up and walking earlier.
About 70 feet around the PCU
He did great!
He's also surpassing his respiratory therapy goal :]
He's a beast and he's determined to heal quickly
but efficiently.
