Wednesday

He is still in the ICU but  hoping to be transfered to a step down unit tonight. Today's chest xray still shows pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs).  He is still on several meds and still has the feeding tube. He is eating some food, but swallowing is very painful and food "in general" taste awful.  His heart is still in A-fib and has not converted yet to a sinus rhythm, even on the medications. He is very weak but is doing well. They hope to start cardaic rehab tonight once he has been transfered to the step down unit. The family is still restricted in visiting. He is weak and he realizes this - and hasn't even asked to come home. Thanks again for all your love and support.
