David had a quiet afternoon - thank the Lord!
His labs are fairly normal again. They have the paralytic and the sedative going, so he is resting quietly.
They are planning to keep the sedation and the paralytic going until Monday, perhaps as long as Wednesday. The main reason is to allow that cartilage/kinked area to heal.
The paralytic medication is exactly what it sounds like. The sedation is so that he doesn't have that anxiety of being aware, but being paralyzed. With the medications, he appears to be resting very comfortably. And we're very thankful for that.
