Another day in the ICU.
The (hopefully) temporary pacemaker that has been keeping Conk’s heart in rhythm since surgery was switched from constant to back-up mode; it’s hard to tell how often or if it kicks in, but it’s a promising step. Conk ate a little breakfast and lunch and thought the food was delicious. She started PT, which today meant sitting up in a chair for 3 hours. And her chest tube was removed, which also meant that the extremely noisy and annoying pleurovac machine is gone.
More good news tomorrow!
