Interesting chats with Christine and Sandi (yesterday's nurses) about what is known about how much patients remember from their stay in the ICU - turns out not much because of the narcotics and sedation but many patients say they remember feeling confused and worried, anxious. So both nurses have been sure to tell Linda where she is and exactly what they're doing to make her better hopefully to alleviate those fears and we have been trying to do that too .
Chelsea (new nurse) says Linda had a good night. Will know more once we get up there.
That is too funny, Lorraine. Cath and I had that same conversation yesterday, wondering what the brain is doing and remembering about the past eleven days. Things sound better and better and as you said every hour that goes by is another one towards healing. Tell Linda we love her and are sending all the energy we have. Take care of yourself Lorraine! Big hugs to both you and Lucille.
