Another good day for Tom.  He was tired in then evening and took a couple of good cat naps. He’s down to one blood pressure medicine and one other medicine.  The blood pressure medicine is scheduled to finish with in the next 12 hours.  I heard hints from the nurse that Tom may get to move out of ICU tomorrow.  Maybe even time to watch the Huskers on the flat screen from his new room?  Apparently, Tom had this happen last too, but around 9 pm he gets really cold and shivery for about 15 minutes.  Both times he isn’t running any fever and all other numbers on monitor are where they need to be.  The EEG headgear was removed today and now his head really itches even after having it washed.  His right shoulder and upper arm area is really sore, he has an ice pack over it.  Maybe from laying around, working it during therapy, or ?  I got him all tucked in, and didn’t leave until he’d stopped shivering.  He was rambling about kickers and scores.  I thought he was talking in his sleep, but then I said something about the UCLA game, and somehow Tom new the score.  I thought he was a sleep. He was tracking the game better than I was.  My mind was actually on getting the paperwork done for his medical leave, not football.

Pray that Tom stays stable after the blood pressure medicine runs its course, and gets to move out of ICU.  We’ll do a happy dance for sure.
