I just left Dad's room, and I'm quite pleased. The cardioversion went perfectly and Dad is all set (assuming no changes tonight) to move to the step-down unit tomorrow. I'll post info then. He's sitting up doing crosswords again. He's awfully frustrated because his brain can't seem to find the right words, but that's an after effect of all the medicine and the major trauma his body has been through. He is joking with the nurses and is threatening to chase them around the bed just as soon as it doesn't hurt to move. Although he looks like a pincushion (his sensitive skin just can't handle the brutality of IVs and BP cuffs), he looks markedly better every time I see him. More later.
