Christopher
has had a restful night. His vital signs are stable and his intracranial pressure
has leveled off. He continues to run a fever but is on a combination of
antibiotics to treat any infection. His kidneys are working well and he is
tolerating his tube feedings. His chest tube is not draining much which is good He did respond to his mom touching his face; a positive
neurological sign. He remains unconscious
but is on strong pain medication.
We hope that as he is weaned off his pain medication over the next few
days that his level of consciousness will improve.
We would like to say a special prayer tonight
for Ryan
Aschenbach and his family.
Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or
watch, or weep this night, and give your
angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to
the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted,
shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake. Amen.
A mothers touch. Very positive sign indeed. Our sincere condolences go out to the Aschenbach family.
