Thursday evening finds me at the hospital visiting with JB. He is on the 6th floor in the cardiac recovery area. The floor is much less stressful, less noisy and generally a better enviroment. Still not like home of course, but certainly better.

The nice thing about JB's status the last two days is that there is not much going on. I do not have to comment on any awful pain, or gross episodes. JB is pretty well overall and interactive when he is awake. A good sign is that he has grabbed his Itouch and is browsing the web and e-mail. That is a sign that he is recovering well.

I made some food (as well as many other people including his mom who made some tasty veggie soup and some of his sisters brought in good organic blueberries, raspberries and bananas. So, JB's appetite is pretty close to where it was before the ordeal.

The staff on 6C is nice too. They come in less frequently to poke or prod him. Right now JB still has one IV and one drainage tube remaining. They are possibly going to remove that drainage tube tomorrow. There is no word as to how long he will be held in the hospital. I have not seen or talked with any doctors since yesterday evening. The cardiologist briefly walked in last night, but only wanted to see some vitals and quickly was gone.

Again, any visitors are welcome as the weekend begins. JB would enjoy the company to help pass the time. Thanks everyone for your support.
