Hi all,for all who sent prayers and encouragement. My heartfelt thanks. Sure helps a WHOLE lot. Now for the good news. George is off O2, is coughing less with the help of the breathing treatments. If things still look as good tomorrow aft, he will be sent home. That is okay with me. I've gotten some much needed ME time. Now I can go back to taking care of him with an open heart and rested body.He is almost back to his old self attitude wise. Flrting and being a smart A__ with the staff Hope his appetite keeps improving. At least now he has some interest in eating HEH! Maybe it was just my cooking and he prefers hospital fare! Whoa, better not! Better get some sleep so I will be bright eyed and bushy tailed tomorrow! Good nite and God bless. Hugs, Juanita CG for George 74/71/64. .
