Friday 8am

This morning our dad was taken off of sedation for a little bit. He is able to open his eyes and blink. This is an improvement from yesterday. Keeping him off of sedation tends to raise both his breathing rate and blood pressure, which isnt good. They only tend to give him a "sedation vacation" once a day. Right now his blood pressure is okay so he is still on vacation. The neurology team should be coming this way soon. They will be able to do a better evaluation on him then. Keep your fingers crossed and prayers coming this way. Thank you and have a great day!
