This morning Emily and Joyce visited Gene. Emily is so attentive about making sure that his needs are met. He washes his face, puts lotion on his hands and feet, and checks him over good to make sure there isn't something that needs the attention of a staff member.
Last night Joyce had the weather channel on for Gene and there was a piece about the weather causing the shuttle landing to be postponed and Gene was interested in it. So this morning while they were there they found the shuttle landing on TV - Gene was interested in it and watched some of it.
This afternoon, he was running a bit of temp and looked flushed but his other vitals were good. He was also seemed tired.
This evening, Gene seemed a bit weary. His temperature had gone down by about a degree and was at 98.7 which is just a tad high for him.
Gene was a bit weary tonight when Joyce and Emily visited. He seemed to be working a bit harder to breath this afternoon and evening. His settings are pressure 18 and oxygen 40. Last night they increased his pressure just a bit to help him breathe easier, but it is back down tonight.
Prayer Requests
Please pray for Gene's respiration to grow stronger, and for his body to heal. Pray for Emily to continue to find the balance she needs to nourish herself so that she can stay strong for Gene.
