Out of ICU, Home Tomorrow?

Things are going okay here. Jason's dad was moved from ICU to a regular room on Monday night about 7:00. He hadn't slept much on Sunday night, so he really wasn't feeling very well. Tuesday was better, because he'd had more sleep, but there was a lot of swelling on one side of his face. One eye was swollen shut all of Monday. As of today, Wednesday, the swelling is greatly decreased, and he's able to see again out of that eye. He's having physical and occupational therapy, making sure that he is stable enough on his feet to avoid falls at home. He was up and dressed in street clothes by 4:30 this morning, and he performed beautifully for the therapists today. Jason took him on a walk this afternoon, and he did really well. If things continue to progress, he may go home on Thursday.

His sister, whom he has not seen in years (since our wedding), flew in to surprise him today. We are so glad she came, and Jason's grandparents were especially excited to see her. It was a great surprise for Lynn.

Thanks again for your prayers for us. This is a tiring routine, but it is good to be together. We're so glad the Lord allowed that to happen.
