Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. Hope your day was a good one.
Paul's heart rate went wild again when they discontinued the medicine that is use to stop the atrial fibrillation. It took over seven hours to get it back under control. This was actually a shorter time then the last time they tried to stop it. So we do have progress. They put him back on the meds and will try to wean him off again as the medicine is not for long term usage. He has had a couple of really good coughing spells that have loosened the fluid in the lungs. This is great and will allow him to breath even better. We continue to work on lung capacity with respiratory therapy every four hours.
My daughter Elizabeth stops by often to lend her support and checks that I am getting rest and a break from the hospital. My cousin Mary flew in for the weekend to be with us. So for all those who are worried about me..... I am okay and have angels looking after me!
Paul is looking forward to a peace filled night with minimum interruptions so he can get some much needed sleep. We are praying that he continues to maintain a normal sinus rhythm and good oxygen numbers through the night and tomorrow.
Paul enjoyed all the Father Day wishes and thanks each one of you for all your prayers and good wishes.
