Newly operated

Håkan is newly operated. They’ve operated on the left side of his torso and redressed his bandages. The infection he has is nothing more than what is normal for this type of healing, and the CRP level has gone down some more.

They no longer give Håkan any sedatives, but he was given anesthesia for the operation. They want him to wake up so they can have contact with him. The night nurse said that he’d had contact with Håkan. He wants to breathe on his own and gets out of time with the respirator. Given a few verbal instructions, Håkan has then changed the timing of his breathing.

There are several good signs:
-the blood levels have changed for the better
-the skin is continuing to heal
-no complications
-Håkan is trying to breathe on his own.

Thank God for the good reports and for the fantastic staff who work with Håkan.
