Doing well
Saturday Keith had a very quiet and uneventful day in the ICU. He was quite alert in the morning and was visited by his surgeon as well as the host of the regular ICU doctors who make rounds. He was beginning to feel some pain - headache/pressure - and was given pain meds in the afternoon. He promptly went to sleep for the balance of the day! Just before dozing off, he got his first few bites of food since Thursday night- jello and canned peaches.
Keith is still on oxygen and we are continuing to monitor his neurological status - all looks good so far. He will likely stay in the ICU for a few more days. Risks include the usual surgical complications - blood clots or infection- so we want to make sure he stays well.
He is at the Kaiser Sunset Hospital, Room 469 and is able to have visitors (2 at a time) 9:30 am to 7:30 pm. Our cell phones don't work very well in the room, but he has a land line. Feel free to call him at 323 783-6651.
