Many Questions with Ron

Good morning,
Well it seems a lot of questions still remain over Ron's condition and all that. On Tuesday the vents were removed, but he was havng a lot of bleeding. It appears that has stopped as of last night. Unfortunately, he was having problems and pulling out the tubes, pick line, etc.

Last night during Craig's visit Ron was better, but having problems with thoughts and memory. Basically the nurse called is ICU Psychosis - where people just go a little whacky while in there. He was saying a few odd things, questioning things that happened long ago - things like that. But then the next minute he was asking the nurse why she didn't do one of his eye drops and actually said this long name of the medicine. So we don't know.

They said its possible there may have been some brain damage when from the lack of oxygen to his brain on Friday/Saturday. We know his heart stopped for 30-60 seconds. but I'm not sure if they knew how long he had not been getting enough oxygen. So we'll see.

Please continue to pray for Ron and all of us that he gets better soon.
Love,
Gail
