The Drs are being cautious about the fluid. He is getting some short acting sedation to make sure he has comfortable nights and when he is moved around he is given short acting pain medications to minimize any pain that might cause. It is hard for us to stay away from him to keep him from getting agitated but that is the best thing for him. He won't get upset trying to communicate with us when he can't. We are still always in the room with him though.
Right now he is sleeping nicely, calmly, and vitals are stable and good. The team of Drs have been wonderful. We want to hurry, but we don't want to hurry. We want it to be the right decisions for him no matter how hard it is to see him like this.
This too, shall someday be a distant memory we will talk about. I know Dad will have hundreds of questions!
