Day 9 of Scott's Hospitalization

9 a.m. - Hit & killed a squirrel on way 2 hospital. Must not read too much into it

10:13 a.m. - NEW INFO: Dr. Cato now thinks it may not be TTP. It might be something called DIC.

10:28 a.m. - Now we're plotting 2 give him a colonoscopy while he's sedated. Mmwahahaha!

11:54 a.m. - A really great meeting w/ Mary Liz. Love her so much right now that I could French kiss her.

12:19 p.m. - Love to share our good fortune w/ others, but it would be nice if others in the waiting room could reciprocate.

1 p.m. - Platelet count 120,000. Up from his low of 15,000. Low end of normal is 140,000.
And though he'd be mortified for u 2 know it, he's producing more & clearer urine than before. That indicates improved kidney function, in case u wonder why I felt like giving TMI.

2:30 p.m. - It's nice to see other patients progressing out of the ICU. Gives the rest of us hope...

6:03 p.m. - Great gods alive! He opened his eyes & responded to me! Wasn't much - expression change in response to a statement - but enough to make me very happy!

8:05 p.m. - Georgia game coming on. Go dawgs! (Sorry, Sanj)

8:10 p.m. - Dadgum! Looking @ the crowd of 90,000 @ Sanford, I wouldn't wanna be a Bama fan there...

9 p.m. - More waiting room etiquette: eat your own dang food, for Jeebus sake.

9:21 p.m. - Dang! He's having trouble keeping his oxygen levels up again.
