Update- no update.
He's being kept sedated due to the panic and fear that makes him thrash his head and shrug his shoulders. He's asthmatic, was extremely so as a child. He keeps mouthing he can't breathe and is gulping and gaspig with the intibation down his throat. Its hard to watch and looks like a dying man gasping his last breaths.
My ex (his mom) keeps ranting that it might have been better off he'd not survived the accident, and she wishes she could change places with him- over and over and over.......She has his sister thinking the same.
His older brother and I are trying to keep it together.
I've called for a Family meeting with the docs.
I'm tired of getting everything 2nd hand. Haven't spoken to his docs since Mon nite (surgeon assisting on 1st surgery). I've never seen, or spoken to his main surgeon- the head of the dept, and a world known leader in SCI surgery.
The place is very confusing with different teams doing different things. Hope the meeting will be early next week.
