Peter was moved from the Intensive Care Unit early this morning. He has been sleeping nearly all the time. Yesterday he was able to sing a song in German with his sister Katherina. Today his ability to communicate verbally when awake is very limited. This continues to be true after pain medication dosage has been lowered. He has not eaten today and is taking very little to drink.
Some of the lethargy may be due to the medications not getting out of his system as fast as they would if his liver were working at full capacity. Maybe, maybe not. Results from the biopsy are not yet in.
At nearly all times when permissible by hospital staff, someone has been at Peter's side.
Janice is now at the airport waiting for her flight back to Denver.
Thanks for your care, concern and continued prayers.
