I came home for the day Friday morning hours and went back yesterday. When I walked in Pat said his usual "hey babe" and he knew me!!! YES, he knew I was his wife and my name and everything!! The nurse told me he said he was married, his wife's name was Tena and we had been married for 17 years, ok, so he missed the amount of years by double, but that's ok, we'll take it, lol.
They removed his drain tube yesterday morning, he will be moved out of ICU as soon as a bed is open. PA was having speech in for swallow test to get him back on foods and PT to get him back up and moving. He'll be sent back to rehab shortly. He was remembering several things and my heart simply melted, I bawled like a baby. Pat said, it's ok, don't cry...bless his heart.
Honestly, this is the best he has been since his accident.
Thank you all my friends for the continued prayers and your strong support. I'll post back when I can. Love you all!!
