Yummy Lemonade!
Let's be honest. Today sucked for Mitch!!!
It started out good. He had his Nose (stomach) tube pulled so he could drink lemonade (see pic above.)
But then, a few hours later; Mitch developed this monster migraine. He was miserable with all the tubes and the headache and the pain. The nurses, Carla and Mark, did not know how to help him...(third photo)
He is still in the ICU and everything is still going good with his new lungs but it was just a horrible terrible no good day as far as being in intense pain all day. The docs are still reporting good status though, so that's good.
Mitch did, however, still manage to take 2 good walks and sit up for a lot of the day.
We hope tomorrow is a better day!
Behind the Scenes: I also wanted to thank my mom, Lois, for helping out tremendously by taking such great care of Simon and Matias, and our dog, Luke. She has been amazing! She had a double hip replacement at the end of June so it takes a lot of effort and stamina. We are calling in the second string tomorrow- my Aunt Lynn arrives to help out for the week. It takes a village!

Yeah, the narcs can be a blessing and a curse. They will bring on some monster headaches. Tomorrow will be a better day. Remember the roller coaster. Hang in there bud. Glad you got your lemonade.
