I was able to stay in ICU with Daniel last night (sh! I was snuck in by the nurse). He has still been in pain, so the nurse called in for an additional medicine for pain. The medicine is similar to a prescription strength Motrin, or taking 4 Motrin at once. He also is taking another medicine before his bath, when they change is dressing and clean his cuts, or whenever they move him a lot. This medicine puts him in la-la land, and he does not remember much for the hour afterwards.
He slept alright until about 3 pm, but was then pretty restless. The extra medicines definitely seem to be helping as well.
The blood work taken during the night showed that his blood count is low, and he may need more blood. We are waiting for the doctors to come in for more information.
