Same start as yesterday...breathing gave Brian some trouble when he woke up today. They increased a setting on Brian's vent to help him take bigger breaths. They are hoping this will push out fluid from the space around the lungs. He will get an x-ray in the morning to see how things look.
It was another gorgeous day in Denver. Brian and I sat outside and took in the fresh air. It definitely lifted our spirits. We had a nice dinner with my brother, sister-in-law, and Dad. Brian watched the end of the basketball game and is watching hockey now, so I'd say he's doing better. :) I'm glad the day turned around for him. Brian is such a trooper!
Thank you all for the words of encouragement, prayers, and good vibes.
Brian and Julie- so happy to hear you've been able to get outdoors and feel the sun on your face. Love the smile....
ReplyDeleteKeep working hard and remember you have an army of people praying for you and the family. :)
So good to see the smile on Brian's face! We love you Brian and we will keep praying for you and your family!
ReplyDeleteBrian, keep up the fight, you are so strong, and with Julie and family there you will keep moving forward in your recovery!
ReplyDeleteJulie and Brian: your Cope friends and family think and pray for you daily. You guys are an awesome team and look forward to seeing you both very soon!! John Lee and your Cope Team.
ReplyDeleteBrian. I must be on the struggle bus because I've tried To send you a few messages to no avail. I wanted to say that I miss you brother and it was awesome getting to know you and your lovely family. Hey Julie! I hope your enjoying the Colorado air but not to much 😂😂. You were all a breath of fresh air for us here at BJC especially for us ICU nurses. Despite your circumstance you made me stronger. Your positive attitude has inspired me more then you'll ever know. It's great reading your updates. I think of you often. Keep rehabbing hard because I owe you a shot of whiskey and some burnt ends from salt and smoke. Bed 6 will never be the same but that's the past. Your future is being written. Your gone from BJC but far from forgotten. We all talk about you often. We all also have lost 10lbs since your family has left. Your daughters are beautiful and lucky to have a dad who is as courageous as you. Be good! VIN DOG
