Today is a big day... Pam is out of CCU and back on the oncology floor at the hospital. It is a lot more quiet without all of the monitoring equipment. Her oxygen has been turned way down and she is tolerating it just fine. One of the residents showed me her chest xray from 3 days ago compared to today, and it is a dramatic improvement.
Moving back to the oncology ward is a lot more convenient for me, because I can have my computer in the room and don't have to check in to get onto the floor all of the time. As I keep explaining to Pam, it is all about me and my convenience, after all.
She still has a lot of mouth and throat pain, so we are trying to get on top of that. I am hoping that Pam will be able to walk to the bathroom later today and, possibly walk in the hallway by tomorrow. (Sorry, the physical therapist in me starting to come out there... )
Right now, she is sleeping and looks comfortable. She is talking in her sleep again:
"What do people do with it"
"You know what I mean"
"I fell"
Thank you all again for your prayers and good wishes. Things are getting better all of the time.
