More drains out today and then water BY MOUTH. He could have H2O every hour as his tipple and made sure every hour he did. No leakages from the join so he was transferred to HDU tonight whilst No.1 son and family were there. He could be on semi solids by weekend if all goes well. He is still being fed for 20 hours a day in his ilium so is getting nourishment all the time.
We had a lovely surprise too. 2 dear friends from Brazil were in Manchester for the day and called to see Malcolm for half an hour whilst I got a coffee. He was so pleased.
If anyone wishes to visit he is on HDU Critical Care bed 31 and visiting is 3-8p.m. First floor MRI.
So a new ward tomorrow and hopefully less drains still. He has started giving me orders about what to bring in tomorrow so he must be getting better.
I meanwhile on the way home recorded some episodes of a radio soap opera I am in and then came home and crashed. For those worried about me I came home very early at 5.30 and slept on the couch as a couch potato watching The Musketeers and quiz shows and am getting a reasonably early night tonight.
God is good.
