Ericka didn't get to see Mike very much today, because two other trauma cases arrived and the SICU was closed down to visitors. However, she did get to see him this evening.
They did not do the trach or feeding tube again today. Mike's cranial pressure increased to 30 today. It was in the 20s by the time Ericka left.
He has had a steady temperature...in the low 100's. This has kept him on a cooling blanket.
They added another drain tube to his chest to relieve some of the fluid build-up there.
In Ericka's words, he seemed a little more rigid. I take that to mean that he has had less movement today.
They did a CT scan because his neuro assessment showed little information today. They had not received the results yet.
That's where they are today.
As always, all the prayers and support are greatly appreciated. Keep praying for healing. Specific prayers. Pray for strength for Ericka. She still has a positive attitude, but she sounds a little worn...understandably.
