Good evening all. Geoff did great today. Initially breathing and pulse/oxygen levels were low, the respiratory doc cleaned his lung twice today and his breathing got much better, pulse/oxygen rose nicely. They backed off the Barbiturates and paralyzer, and dropped the oxygen in the vent. ICP's remained in the teens, breathing at 15-20 times per minute(vent set at 15). This mornings CT scan showed his right side still has swelling. Nurse said they would trim his hair to match (he would be sooooooo embarased to see it now) and give him a shave. They set his bed on vibrate and he tolerated it nicely. Sould help break up the junk in his lungs. Still on track for a next week wake up call.
