Wednesday, 7 October 2009 - Day +58
Doctors were happy with Drew again today and he was given day and night release again. He does have a bit of a 'fruity' cough, as they call it, so hopefully that doesn't amount to anything more. Drew had the ultrasound today, I could see the blood clot was still there, but we didn't get a call from the Doctors so hopefully that is good news. All his cannulas have been removed and his next blood test will be on Friday, as a finger prick, he should go OK with that and if all is well he will be discharged. As much as that is what we have been waiting and hoping for, it is still a bit scary now that it has arrived. Drew is enjoying being out of the hospital, as you would expect. He didn't nap during the day today, but did go to bed about 7.30pm tonight, his Doctor told me this morning that it is all pretty normal for this stage and that in the early stages when Drew had so much energy he was way beyond the curve , which is reassuring.

Glad he is enjoying his time in the unit and hopefully being out of the hospital will keep his spirits up.
Did he finish all the doughnuts,that should give him heaps of energy or a rotten tooth if nothing else.
Is there a phone number at the unit?

Great to hear about Drew's continued brave recovery. He's lucky to have such a dedicated family beside him.
All the best for your free time together.
