I spoke with Jerry earlier this morning. He said that Pat is doing well with the exception of her oxygen levels. She is hovering a little lower than the medical staff would like for her to be before they can move her out of ICU. Dad is concerned that she is speaking too much so his protective nature has kicked in by allowing only 20 minute visits for the family. He wants his girl out of ICU badly. Regretfully, she will remain in ICU for at least one more day.
Her status today is phenomenal given the seriousness of her condition last week. Pat says that she has little pain. She is taking very little pain medication. She is not sedated at all. Her vitals are incredible and she continues to perform miraculously when asked to walk in place or even march a little. She simply needs to improve her oxygen intake.
My mom is an amazing lady, but you already knew that.
