July 19, 2021 - Day 6

 July 19, 2021-Day 6

Veronica and I arrive at about 10am.  We go through the regular check in. Get the same visitor stickers as the day before, apparently these are the new visitor stickers. No bright orange ones. 

Veronica and I head again for the 3rd floor.  She waits in the waiting room while  I check us in and see how he’s doing. 

He’s not the sleeping patient that he once was, he’s all over the place, but still healing. I dont have as much time to write this blog anymore, I was writing while he would sleep, but he only has cat naps.

He has had his trachea cap on all night, so he’s on his way to getting that gone. He needs it capped off for 24 hours before it can be taken out. He’s having a hard time clearing some phlegm, I hope when the trachea is removed this problem will be taken care of.

We have been on many walks today, compared to his first walk. We went at 11:00am, 2:50pm and 4:30pm each time he did 2 laps.

I’m looking forward to not having the oxygen tank, it will be easier to go for walks.

Veronica and I had lunch down stairs in the cafeteria. I had baked ravioli and Veronica had a noodle bowl.

Veronica went back to the hotel around 2:30pm.

I stayed until 8:30pm.  Carlisle needed more assistance today, Veronica and I try to help the nurses, etc, as much as we can. 

Thanks for checking in for my update, Carlisle is healing every day, and hopefully we will be back home soon.

Thanks for your continued support, love to you all!! xoxo
