Gene had a fairly good day today. Dr. Bryce the wound doctor visited him and evaluated his pressure wound and is going to do another debriding procedure tomorrow morning. Emily spent a good part of the day with him today and plans to be there tomorrow when they do the debriding.
Gene sat up for awhile today. It is very difficult for him and he has to be supported. While he was sitting up the nurse asked Emily if she would like to put lotion on his back - of course she was delighted to have that opportunity. Gene can feel the sensations when someone touches him, even though he has very limited movement.
It seems that after the debriding tomorrow there could be a set back in his breathing.
Prayer requests
Please pray for Gene to have a good response to the debriding procedure so that his pressure wound can begin to heal. Pray for his body to be able to absorb the nutrients he needs, for his respiration to grow stronger, and for his spirit to remain strong. Pray for Emily to have strength and courage.
