Justin has informed us that the next time we come in and find him sleeping we are to wake him up. Of course, I thought it was because he missed our loveable personalities but it was because he said "if I sleep during the day, I won't sleep good at night"---go figure. He was feeling better tonight. Had a few scares with congestion and new shift of nurses on tonight; otherwise, I think it was a good visit.
I'm trying to get the hang of things and either go too soft or too rough (as he quickly let me know tonight) but he seemed okay that we are trying. Had to "cough him" during treatment and I guess I got a bit aggressive. Apologized many times---learning alot!!
He seemed in good spirits, letting nurses know real quick what he knows he needs even when they question it. Turned down pain meds tonight and sleep aid meds and convinced respiratory he didn't need to be put on oxygen tonight.
Another day of turn-arounds and we're learning they happen.
Appreciate you all and will continue to report everything. Keep praying, that is the strength!!
Love you all for the support, encouragement, prayer and keeping us grounded!!
