It was a very odd day. Joel started out sleepier, he had some physical therapy this morning then he was up in the chair for a while. He "walked" from his bed to mine twice today. Once to talk to Lora and Timmy on the phone, and once to get his Biology book (more quickly).
His X-rays were a little worse again this morning, the nurse showed me yesterday's and today's together and explained them some more.
His surgeon said he won't be going home in the next four days. Coumadin still not budging INR, even at that high dosage.
Pacer wires were pulled out today by someone in charge.
Around 2:00 when we had lunch, Joel started acting very strange, calling one word over and over, picking at and biting his fingers and pulling at the hair on the top of his head.
There was a surgery in the next room which took most of their attention this evening.
Finally someone in charge chose to give Joel a dose of Versed and that worked about an hour till he'd eaten part of his supper, and then he got weird again, crying out "waa! waa!" over and over again, and not responding to our questions.
Now he's had a dose of Ativan (which they'd also taken him off of) and is asleep.
Praying for all the little children here.
Love,
Dolores
