Well, just as I figured--everyone missed the 4:30 visit and he was awake. Said he was a wondering where everyone was. 7:30 visit seemed nice--just me, dad and Robyn. He was in good spirits, alert and ready to head to Atlanta. Said the day had been a bit rough with the percussions (that they did twice, I wasn't aware of that) but he was proud he had only had to ask for the morphine once.
BP was 106/48, HR 64, SPO2 at 99 and temp was a bit up again around 100 but he did have a blanket even though the cooling blanket was going--made me feel better that he wouldn't be shivering through the night.
He had no reservations about Shepherd and no further questions other than how soon would the traech come out and of course, how soon could he eat. The child is starving!!
Hated to leave him tonight but big day coming up--gotta sleep, work tomorrow and finalize loading the car for Tuesday. We are 36 hours from starting the next step of this journey--we continue to thank you all--family-friends-nurses--for so much encouragement, support and prayers that reaffirm Justin will come through this.
We will continue to update you all!! Love you all!!!!
