Step Down 9:00pm Thursday July 28, 2022

 Byron has been moved to the step down unit.  This is a "step down" from ICU and boy is it nice!  It's completely quiet with private rooms, private bathrooms, elegant conference space - like a nice hotel!  Byron's physical reaction to this surgery is a bit different than the first.  The first was very linear: pain was there but got better over time and each day he made more progress.  This time, he makes big strides and then takes a few steps backwards.  He is in a lot of pain right now, doesn't want to eat and is requesting WAY more morphine than the first time.  But hopefully he will have a great nights sleep and be back at it tomorrow.  Good night!
