Complete 180

david052.jpgAfter an entire week of worry, bad news and setbacks, David made an awesome recovery this past weekend.

On top of what I wrote in my last update, he had a seizure Saturday morning.  Thankfully, they studied ultrasounds of his head and couldn’t find anything.  There’s definitely an injury up there, but it looks to be nothing major.  He’ll be on seizure medication for quite a while to prevent another one.

Everything seemed to be going down the drain that morning, but he was stable later in the day.  That night and Sunday, he made what appeared to be a remarkable turn-around.  He was bright-eyed and alert, and he was so peaceful. As of Monday night, most of his tubes (chest, oxygen, etc.) had been removed.  His blood pressure is also down to normal.

He’ll start eating again Wednesday to see how his belly does.  If it does well, then he could be moved from the cardiac ICU to a regular room sometime this weekend.  That’s the final step before going home!

Please continue to pray!
