At the last minute I decided to pop down to Devon to see Mum today. As mentioned by Russ and Sylvia, she is still in a stable condition. Her medication and ventilator setting having been adjusted up and down to understand how she reacts and her condition. Currently she can initiate breathing but still needs help from the ventilator to draw sufficient breath, an encouraging sign.
I spent the day holding her hand and talking to her. I hope she heard or felt some of it and that it helped break the boredom of lying still on a bed all day.
Thanks for everyone's messages, thoughts and prayers.
Hi Stuart, My mum told me that you had started a blog so I just thought I'd check in and let you know I am reading your updates and praying for Auntie Phyll. Maybe your world feels like it has shrunk to the size of your home and the hospital, I hope it helps a little to know there are people upholding you and Russ in their thoughts.
