Well wonders never cease...
Day 28: Stanford Hospital
A big surprise! This a.m. when I called the hospital to check on Mark, the nurse told me, “Mark just woke up” from amnesia, they took him off of the drug ‘verset’ (?sp) which places the patient in a memory loss and pain free condition. Mark was trying to talk like crazy and guess the nurses are good to mouth readings. He wanted to know where he was, and were they checking his blood sugars, and please call my mom and dad for me. We just could not believe what they told us - so all these 27 days we thought Mark was looking at us and smiling some - we were just strangers to him.
So tonight, what a surprise to see him. I am no good at mouth reading so it was frustrating for him and glad the nurse could figure it out. Just a big change! They did not do the liver ultra-sound procedure today (?) but the orthopedic surgeon called and they will operate on both legs tomorrow morning.
I told him of Mark’s blood drive tomorrow and he said he would try to get over there also, how about that! So hopefully, hope and prayers are what we have all will go well from here on out.
Looking forward to tomorrow and for those who cannot make the ‘blood’ drive your there for Mark in spirit like always.
