Sunday Update

In honor of Mother's Day
Bob and his mother, Joan

Bob had a restful day today.  The doctors were happy to see that Bob's heart rate was better today, staying below 100 for most of the day.  The doctors mentioned that we needed to be very diligent in making sure not to do anything to cause it to spike.  This is a delicate balance when trying to do range of motion exercises, changing his dressings and shifting his position in the bed.  The doctors said that it is important to do things in an easy manner and give Bob plenty of time to recover before doing something else.  Bob has made great progress since coming to Jackson Memorial.  We are thankful for the hard work of all the doctors, nurses and therapists.
