The CT results are back. The brain bleed has stopped which is amazing news!! However there is still swelling in the brain, but this is pretty normal. The better he gets the more the swelling will come down. The Dr. is not concerned about it at this time. He still has to have his feeding tube which is a huge disappointment for him, he HATES that thing. All of the medication that he is on has caused his feeding tube to get blocked. If they can't flush it out he will have to have another feeding tube put in. The best news of all is that they have decided it will be OK for him to be released to physical therapy with his feeding tube. So TODAY he is moving to the PT room. It is on a different floor, I'm not sure which one yet. Yay!! Finally out of Critical Care. Another bit of amazing news....Dad was able to walk down the hall, have his shower and walk back to his room, all WITHOUT his walker!!! He is making huge improvements!
