Another long day. The best and worst day so far.
Brett was taken off of all sedation and pain medicine. His breathing tube removed. We were able to partially communicate although it was difficult.
He was very active with both legs and arm. Brett was agitated and determined to get up..
He ‘told’ me to get him out of the bed. Wanted to know why he was here and where he was..
Thought we were holding him down. I think his chest feels heavy.
He still was in a partial dream state due to residual drugs in his system.
Later in the day he had trouble breathing and they put a breathing mask on him. (Similar to what is used for sleep apnea.)
Our current prayer requests are:
1. Brett's unassisted breathing and ability to expectorate. Cough it up boy!
2. Physical, mental and spiritual strength for Brett and the rest of the family. (We have told him of the accident but not of his lost arm. This news will probably be delivered tomorrow.)
We hope to see Brett improve on Monday and Tuesday to the point he is released from ICU.
Thanks for all the expressions of love and encoragement. It has been uplifting.
Although we don't understand why this has happened we will trust and praise God each day.
