Thurs. Oct 25 Afternoon UPDATE

Great news - dad is out of ICU! We arrived in his Neuro Unit room around 3:30pm. He is trying to adjust to a new setting and new team of nurses. Thanks to all of you for praying this step into action. What a good feeling to get out of the ICU. He is pretty confused today - a lot of different things happening to him with the move. I know so many people are anxious to see him, and I think after 24 hours on this floor to get him settled, by the weekend, he will probably be more up to a few visitors beyond the family. There has been no new progress in his clinical status - blood pressure is better, no real movement on his left side today, just a lot of confusion. This new room is very quiet - and I think once he adjusts to being here - he will sleep and be more comfortable - we are glad mom now has a couch in the room to rest on during her stay with him in the day - she can be with him all day now - she is doing so well thru all this - and she is such a wonderful nurse to him!
