Aortic Dissection Repair day 10 1/24/13


January 24.

9:30am. 2nd bad night, think we need to be here all night. Lots of pain and nightmares...crackly lungs but thank God no breathing tube. so we got to talk clearly for 30min or so...now dosing again. Less bleeding from drainage and that's good. He got to look at his wounds and it reminded him of Jesus' suffering. Gail with me until Paula arrives.

2pm. Yesterday's blood cultures show no growth. On antibiotics of course. He just stood up three times and is now in the chair working hard to hold his head up.

9:30pm. In bed after tea and hot and cold shower...a bit on the puny side. Benita is with John and Paula with me. Well cared for. Vitamin C and garlic coming in the am.

I drove back down to school for a couple days because I needed a break from the hospital... from the ICU... from the good reports, then the bad reports. I felt so torn leaving but I was emotionally/physically exhausted and wasn't much help after the adrenaline wore off. Now that I got some sleep, I'm going back tomorrow with Winston and counting on a miracle. I believe that Jesus wants him to be healed. Thank you for all your kind words, phone calls, texts, visits, chocolate, hugs, and support......means more than you know. — with John Knobloch.
