Saturday Night

I just got back from visiting Dad. He was napping in the chair when I got there about 8:30 pm. While he had several visitors today, he had a fairly quiet day so he got to sleep some.

Nancy didn't report this this morning so I don't know if Dad told her and evidently the cardiac surgeon didn't mention it, Dad had an eventful Friday night. Shortly after I left last night Dad went back into A-fib. He went in and out several times according to the nurse.This is why he didn't sleep very well. He is still in A-fib tonight. This is not unusual or necessarily unexpected. He will probably live with it for the rest of his life.

He did have one PT session today where the emphasis was on balance and using a walker. While he was not at his best today, he was grateful for the workout and change in therapy. Anything different breaks the monotony.

He opted to try the bed again tonight, so I got him up and got him into bed. We watched one of his favorite TV shows, had prayer and I left him to take his meds.


Lam.5
[5] With a yoke on our necks we are hard driven;
we are weary, we are given no rest.
[21] Restore us to thyself, O LORD, that we may be restored!
Renew our days as of old!

God is good!
