This is our command center. We kind of took over the NCCU waiting area, across the hall from the ICU (he is room 3321). We have a total of 5 laptops, one iPad, and several phones. Starr has been in charge of her blog, her phone, Matt's phone, and all the visitors.
So far we had Matt Hinkey (sp?), Clark, Robin, and then of course Jamie came before surgery.
Matt has been checked on by the nurses on an hourly basis, and today was "upped" in status which means he only gets checked every 2 hours now. This makes him happy, because every hour of the hour they wake him up, ask his name and where he is and why...he is understandably sick of this! Still waiting for the MRI. Endocrinologist came in and needed some info/records from Idaho Falls that he didn't get yet; he will check back later. They told us that Matt will be in ICU for another 1-2 days still. Doing much better...I am in the room with him now, and they just took away his lunch tray. He ate a little food, and let his tiny little Haagen Daaz ice cream melt, so they brought him a raspberry sherbet. These nurses like him :) Is drinking water regularly, and has good output (although kind of clear, so they are monitoring sodium levels closely). ....I'm sure he will be super excited to read this.
