When I saw gunner this afternoon he was in great spirits (sorta). Dr. B (the Lung King) told him this morning that he would be moved into a regular room. They were “this close” to moving him when Dr. R came it and said he wanted to do the brontosaurs procedure (my medical jargon is worse than pax’s). Gunner has decided he does not like Dr. R because he is evil.
He really hates the ICU because “It is like being in a hallway, the lights are never turned off, there are all kinds of people walking around & talking and it is hot.”. Gunner also mentioned that he REALLY hated getting a sponge bath from a Pilipino grandma.
One the plus side, Dr. B said she will be taking out one of his chest tubes real soon. While I was visiting him, his nurse was recording the fluid from the chest tubes ~ two of them had produced very little fluid, and the liquid in the third one was considerably reduced from previous days.

Well, I guess he does think the doc is evil - who wouldn't! ;-)

The sponge bath will do it!!! Too bad there were no cameras. 5 years from now.......thankfully he will laugh about that bath.
Sounds like prayers and good medical care is working. He’s a lucky to person to have the love of cherished, close friends.
Our prayers continue......

Ask the doc if they nuked Gunner with a intravenous gamma globulin procedure.
Awesome stuff if the going gets real dangerous for him.

Gunner also mentioned that he REALLY hated getting a sponge bath from a Pilipino grandma. Hmpft. I'll bet he was probably protesting "too much" She probably really looked like this.
