Dad reportedly had a good night. Stable vitals, still on oxygen, on IV fluids and antibiotics, reduced the dosage of the blood pressure med (norepenephrine), no fever, pretty much slept thru, moving arms and legs fine when asked, heart rate in the 50's (the nurse thought this might be a little low, but didn't know what is normal for him), urine output a little low, did chest xray and labs this AM (results pending), and will do a swallowing test probably today. She also said he was quiet and appropriate.
(This is all via an automated system where you can call in and get a daily update on your favorite patient!)
