another update on Terry

I contacted my Granma Omi to update her on the situation of things and then went up to the hospital at the time of visiting hours, 8pm tonight. He opened his eyes in a dazzed sense and moved his head towards me but did not focus on me. Nelson &Shirley King went with me and we stayed about 20minutes. I talked to him a little bit trying to just register that I was there. 

I then went to Jeff's to read the letter that he left us (the family).

I appreciate the love, care, concern and prayers...Please keep all involved in your prayers that we have wisdom to know how to help and what to do from here.

another update on Terry

I went up to the hospital again at lunch but she had just given him some more medicine so I didn't talk to him. She said he will be there at least a few days. On my way back from the hospital to work I notified Mindy of what had happened and where things stood as of now.  Terry has had a few visitors, but of course he will not remember them.

another update on Terry

Jeff stopped by the hospital and then my work about 11am to give me an update. He said Terry nodded when he talked to him and he was pretty sure that he recognized his voice though he didn't do anything other than flutter his eyelids. The nurse asked him to squeeze his hand but he didn't. It will take more time for him to waken up and for us to know his progress. He is thrashing quite violently.

another update on Terry

I went to the hospital on my way to work to see him this morning about 8.45am.  Judy Lane met me there to be of support. He was unresponsive to me. Russell Ross had already been there and left him a note with verses on the bulletin board. I went thru Terry's belongings (let me spare you what I went thru and confirmed the fact that I could not be a nurse) in the "personal belongings bag" to try to see if I could find his cell phone and if it would power on to see who the last person was he talked to.  It was dead and would not power on.
