October 8th, 2007 by shahin

Shahin has been moved again to another room.  This room has a better view (his old room didn’t even have a window) and is a little larger, to hopefully accommodate a recliner (where my mom spends a LOT of time in).  His new room number is ICU #19.  Remember, you can send Shahin messages that will be printed and delivered to his room by hospital staff at: http://www.mercyok.net/email/mhc/default.asp.

Never thought I’d be happy to report a bowl movement and a little bit of urine!!!  There are certainly positive signs, and we are hoping for more. 

Outside of that, there really is very little news to report.  He is holding nicely in all areas.  Any improvements are certainly not visible to the naked eye.  They will probably be doing another scan soon to see if the walls of his intestine are normalizing with all the CDIFF-killer medication they are administering. 

Daily score: 6.5
