Well, Dad was finally moved to a regular patient room today. He has a roommate, Mr. Andrew, that he shares the bathroom, but they have their own TVs and curtained areas. Dad is not on a constant heart monitor anymore, but earlier in the day when he was still at NCCU, I didn't see any dips. Dad ate both his lunch and dinner, although dinner was not as appealing to him it seems. Everything's chopped up so we put on salt and butter and hoped for the best. He's still downing the cranberry juice.
Dad has his own phone (410-502-4222). He passed the neurological test very well, especially with the date and place questions. His right foot is still a bit weak so he didn't walk today. Tomorrow he will meet with the physical therapists.
He's still not talking much, but I think that it has to do mostly with his energy levels and not confusion. He's off the catheter.
I saw Dr. Quinones (Dad's main doc) on TV last night. He was helping with a biking fundraiser for brain tumor patients. Kinda funny to see your doc on the news channel.
