CT Scan

Another CT scan this morning, again showing no signs of stroke.

The main medical concerns at this juncture:

  • hydrocephalus
  • vasospasm

    Katherine has been in ICU all afternoon. Fred slept most of the day even though the nurses woke him every hour.

    I saw Fred around 11am. His color was good and he was asleep.

    One point to clarify: the right side of his body is weak, not paralyzed.

    He is getting exceptional care. The ICU at UAMS is very impressive. The nurse on duty was knowledgeable, attentive, and caring. We are deeply grateful for this incredible team of doctors and nurses.

    Thank you for the updates, Charles. Fred has taken great care of the folks at UAMS for years, and I know they are giving back to him now.

    You, Fred and your family are in our hearts and prayers.
