Joe is looking much better today. The cardiologist came to see him and his EKG came out fine. Blood work and blood pressure are also stable. They believe that he is not having any issues with his heart, that the pain may be contributed to Acid Reflux. This is good news!
His counts are coming up but I haven't gotten the numbers. Audry will get these from the nurses hoepfully soon so we can start comparing his counts. He was sitting up and very alert today and able to talk with visitors without getting too tired out.
Joe has been able to tease the nurses, which is a good sign - he was trying to convince one nurse that he was born in 1964 (and only 44 instead of 62). She wasn't quite buying it! He is still having trouble eating much, but is on his second "bag" of food, which is connected directly to his port. I'll stop by with the camera tomorrow and see if I can snap some pictures.
