Mr. V's Journey To Recovery

My mom went this morning to see my dad and talked to the doctors. He is still bleeding but it has slowed down. She said they are monitoring everything and their main goal is to get him stable and then get better. His blood pressure is still low and they keep pumping him with medicines to raise it to a normal level. Dr. Nightshift (i didnt remember to catch his name) came to talk to us out in the waiting area when he got off his shift. He was very somber in his tones and said that basically my dad's rib had punctured an artery in the accident but because the blood was clotting in his lung it was contained but because he had been moved, the artery opened up again. They want to avoid any procedures right now if they can because he said doing a surgery on his body would have the same affect as running a mile. They want him stable and to see what to do next. Dr. Nightshift seemed concered about my dad's health and to me it says he really is doing his job to keep my dad stable and to get his body to recover. Dr. Nightshift was very honest when my mom asked about his kidneys because she was told their were damaged and she asked well how damaged are they and will they heal. He said that he didn't know because their main concern is to stop the bleeding. So its still critical for my dad right now, high alert critical. We do not need drama today, Dad.

Nurse Jennifer III told my dad that we want a boring day, where my dad keeps stable and no excitement. We all want that today. My mom and I are being strong for my dad. He needs all the strength he can get to recover. I love him so much and so do a lot of people. So right now its just a waiting game to see which way he goes, and I know in my heart he will go up. I told him last night dad you have gotten so far you can do this. Thank you all so much for your prayers and thoughts. We love you all.
