T is back on the road to recovery. I guess he didn't feel like he did it very good the first time; he wanted a second chance! He is a bit of a perfectionist. I don't think he'd agree.
Bob became more awake yesterday afternoon. Playing the CD "Asleep At The Wheel", seemed to be a shot of adrenalin for him. "Miles and miles of TX" came on (a song he sings with Wide Load). I told him to tap his foot. He wiggled his foot back and forth a few times.
Later, I asked him if he wanted a kiss. His heartrate shot up to 110. I told him he had to wait until the nurse came so she could adjust the bed. His heartrate came back down. Five minutes later, the nurse adjusted the bed, and I leaned over him to give him a kiss. He puckered. The kiss he gave me was better than last week's. So, I gave him another. The nurse's reaction could have torn my heart out. She said, "Awe, that is so sweet. Look at how he's looking at you. I just got goosebumps. You can tell he's really in there."
Things are looking up again. Keep the prayers coming, please.
