In CCU now (Friday, 7pm)

Anita's been moved out of recovery into CCU now (West Wing, 4th floor, CCU-18).  Limited visitor availability.  No visitors between 7-8AM and 7-8PM.


She's in a lot of pain, but it seems manageable.  Having a lot of trouble talking (throat is a little irritated i guess from having the airway tube stuck down her throat for 10 hours).  She's pressing the pain med button like a video game player, but unfortunately, it's programmed to work only once every 15 minutes or so.  She can't have much of anything except a little water now.  Shes VERY sleepy (I dont know why, shes been sleeping the last 10 hours).  Oh, well it gives me time to blog.  They think she will be in CCU for about a day or so.  Dr. Dickinson is going to visit later tonight to check on her.
Above, Dr. Brian Dickinson. For the hula group, does he not look a little like Dr. Steven Barag's better looking younger brother?????

Dr. D just saw her (730pm) and said she is doing perfectly well.  He's coming back at 11pm, so i guess i'll update again then

Time to grab some dinner since I've been kicked out until 8pm.......

  1. Thank you Larry for keeping us out here. I am glad she came through okay and I am now picturing hitting that button and wondering how come it is not working but at least she feels better and in control!

    Enjoy your dinner and give her my love when you see her!
