UCSF Day 7: March 20

Our usual routine (if there is such a thing in our world right now)is Art wakes up at 4:45 am, checks in with the hospital, reassures me then leaves for work. Today learned that they had to increase Peter's oxygen dueling the night so mom went to hospital at 5:00am - since I was awake, why fight it. Actually, Peter was doing ok and they dropped oxygen back to 60% pretty quickly. Pretty much a mellow Peter day as they held off on further weaning of sedation pending an afternoon CT scan of his chest - didn't actually go until almost 6:00 pm. I checked out of The Carl and into a little B&B on the other side of the park. Not walking distance but better for my spirits. Kathleen (owner) says she will feed me in morning to take care of me so that I can take care of Peter. Jaime was sitting with Peter so my next mission became finding a pair of "Chuck Taylor" high top tennis shoes - per the younger generation, they had to be "Chucks". Mom chose the color - lime green. I think it will match Peter's sense of fashion! Art arrived as Peter was leaving ft CT scan so came back after dinner so they could visit. Plan for tomorrow is a more awake Peter - should be an interesting day.
