Whirlwind Monday

 It was a busy day for Brian today in the ICU. Physical Therapy came in to see about when they would start therapy and decided they needed a collar and back brace that would work together. The doctor came in to see him, as well as the social worker. All these staff were not working over the weekend and had just started their work week. Brian was still sore and said that there are other injuries that add to the hurt other than the major one. 

At one point a very aged lab technician came in to take some blood. She used the name Theodore when referring to Brian which caused Jean to say his name is Brian do you have the correct orders. This made Brian laugh heartily! 

Charles asked why we have so many text threads and I let him know that Jean wanted to add Brian’s friends Tom and Geri. This also caused us to laugh. 

Brian ever the analytical person has started to give the nurses and doctors elaborate long winded answers when just a yes or no will do. 

Jean continues to struggle with thinking so Tracey continues to think for her. When Tracey is working a nurse takes over.
