It was a much better night. I spoke with Stu's nurse at 5 am to check on him, and she said that he slept just a tiny bit, but wasn't the raging lunatic that he was the night before. The handcuffs are off. I left Stu with his cell phone last night when I left the hospital, and he called me on the cell at 6 am asking where I was and how soon I would be there. I think he misses me....
So, here I am, sitting quietly in the corner of his room while he watches golf. Somehow that part of his brain that likes Lifetime Movie Channel (aka "Chickalodian") just hasn't kicked in yet. I might have to give up on that idea.
He is heading down to get a CT scan shortly, and if all looks good, he will move out of ICU and to a regular room. Hopefully, he can get some sleep.
Stu wanted to me know this morning that he got 6 cornflake size buggers out of his nose last last night. He also said that he now has a reputation with the ICU nurses that he is a picker and a fidget (not complementary)-hence the handcuffs.
He is still wearing the bandage on his head--haven't seen the scar yet or the lovely haircut. That will be a fun one to post.

Thanks for the great morning laugh and tell Stu I wish him all the best of luck with the nose picking! At least he is able to entertain himself when he's alone!!
ReplyDeleteLove you both!

See Deb, I always knew you liked buger-pickers and hence our friendship! I am glad he is doing so well and think of you many times during the day! Hoping for a speedy recovery, Ron
ReplyDeleteI just hope you're talking about the hair on his head! I think posting a pic of the Nike swoosh would be TMI, and perhaps copyright infringement!
