Friday morning

Kim had another good night last night. Craig and I picked up Rob and Jeni at the airport about 1 AM and went to see her for a bit. She looked like she was resting comfortably. Bob stayed at the hospital with her, while Evelyn went home for some sleep.
Craig and I slept in this morning, so we haven't been to the hospital yet, but I just talked to Evelyn to get an update. The pulmonologists came in this morning to assess her lung function. They were able to suction a moderate amount of thick mucous from her lungs rising concern for pneumonia. I'm sure that some samples were sent for a culture to see what is going on there. They also removed the diprivan this morning, which should allow her to wake up. Evelyn said that she is opening her eyes but not doing alot of other purposeful movements right now. They're going to do dialysis this morning to get rid of all the fluid that has been accumulating. Her leg looks good and pulses are strong there. The incisions are draining nicely. The repeat CAT scan showed no change--the radiologists see a small amount of blood on the brain, but the neurosurgeons are debating whether or not it is really there.

OK...gotta go. We're heading off to grab some lunch and head to the hospital. Oh how great sleeping in a while this morning felt...
