Morning rounds

We just went through the shift change so we have new nurses for the day. Dr. Garcia just came in to do his assessment on Dad. Last night Dad was having a hard time responding to the nurses questions and his right eye was responding to light quicker then his left. This concerned the nurse enough that he called in a Dr. The Dr came in and checked him out and felt it was nothing to be concerned about so when Dr. Garcia came in this morning he went through a bunch of tests. He checked his eyes, had him do leg and arm exercises, and asked him a bunch of questions. Turns out everything is fine. He was just super tired and had a hard time responding. When the nurse left the room last night (actually this morning around 3am) my Dad raised his arms like what's the problem, I'm doing everything I'm asked. It's nice that they are so on top of things here and any slight change they check right away. It makes me feel better. I'm not sure what is on the agenda today but when things happen I will post it. I do have to go to the airport today around 4 so there will be a few hours I won't be able to post but I will do it when I can.
