Saturday part 2
We were moved onto the step down unit today. Ken no longer needs hourly checks so now we are on the 4 hour schedule. He continues to do well and his vitals are all good. He has not pulled out the second feeding tube and has promised me that he won't. The nurse on the new unit wanted to put mitts on him in addition to the soft restraint they are currently using. I didn't have to fight her but was very clear about no mitts. The restraint is also off when we are here. I don't like to see it used all the time. When I came in this am they had it down pretty tight so I need to make sure that doesn't happen again. We are now watching one of the Bourne movies and he is focusing pretty well on it. There is a recliner chair in the new room, thank goodness, so I can be a little more comfortable. All in all today was a good day!
