Another Boring Day, Day 55

It was another boring day in the ICU.  Archie voluntarily went for a walk this morning, which never happens, so that was a surprise.  Usually I have to start a fight in order to get him up and walking.  I went to church at the hospital from 11:30-12:00.  Archie got a new roommate so I got kicked out for about an hour while he got settled.  During this time, I went for lunch and hung out.  Archie watched football again all day long.  At 3:00, Archie and I went for our second walk of the day and went for a lap around the ICU.  Thank you to Katrina and Jim for coming to visit and bringing us some snacks for the room.  Tyler brought us a yummy dinner, which meant Archie didn't have to eat the yucky meatloaf that was on his tray for dinner.

We are approximately one week into antibiotics and I anticipate we will be in ICU for at least another week until they put the shunt back. After they put the shunt in, we will be here probably 3+ days for observation purposes.  Basically, we will be  at Baylor for approximately two more weeks.  If you are interested in coming to visit, send me a text.  He can have up to two visitors a day.  The visitors give him a distraction from the monotony of the hospital.  Thanks so much for your prayers and thoughts.
