Day 13 - In the Ward

Yesterday was a day full of excitement! Dad's waking saw a whole new energy within the family. We were all so happy to see that he is still alive and can talk - and boy can he talk! Even with a croaky voice (from the tubes) he can still jabber away. In fact, the drugs had an interesting effect.

You see, Dad was under the impression he was only asleep for a few days, and had some funny stories to tell (including some wonderful trips to Colac, the Rialto helipad and the races - the Formula One race was on last weekend).

As interesting as the stories were, Dad is much more normal today. He has now been moved to a ward where he is allowed visitors. I'm sure he will be happy to have a few visitors every now and again. If you want to visit come before 8pm and ask at the reception desk on the ground floor which ward he's in.

At least he's awake, not in any pain, and still in good spirits.

That is awesome news!!!!!
I'm absolutely stoked to hear that.
Although I realise that it's still only the beginning, but at least he's over the worst of it.
I take it the infection is under control?
I will definitely have to go and hassle him on the weekend.
