Lots to report today.

EvaLynn has been off sedation for 24 hours and is going to be allowed to try cpap all day. New pain meds cause she doesn't care for morph. Still a few concerns trying to find the reason for spikey fever and rising white count. Fewer tubes! Central and arterial lines coming out and being replaced by a pic. yeah! Speculation that we can extubate in 24-48 hours. And reports of lawyer sightings have been trickling in.

Ev is communicating. Nods, eye rolls, hand waving. Hard to figure out. She has this circular hand wave which, as far as we can tell means: 1) Morphine is making me dizzy, 2) I need to move, 3) my dad is nuts.

Even this late in life, guitars are still cool and still draw people like magnets. Thankyou to John, Gordon, Bob, Marvin, Peter & Paul for giving me lots of things to sing to Ev & the staff.
