I couldn't find it either.....and went into panic mode. I searched 3 pages and decided I had missed it & started back at the beginning. That's when I spotted it! Whew!

Location: I'll worry about that tomorrow | I've talked to De several times today. Things are much better.
Ryon is so sweet and is being so nice. He & De have worked out some communication whether it's charades or flash cards, but it's working! : )
This guy can be tough as boot leather! So he's fighting and fighting hard.
De is definitely drawing strength from all our prayers and concern. This is going to be a long haul, no doubt, so I have assured her that we will continue to pray. She knows we will.

They are keeping him heavily sedated. We're hoping and praying this vent comes out soon. Ryon has some paralysis to his diaphragm.....this is what's causing some of the breathing problems. That diaphragm needs to strengthen or maybe other muscles strengthened to handle the breathing that comes so involuntary to the rest of us. I hope I'm saying all of that right.

Ryon's upper right lobe of his lung is still collapsed. They have used cpap to help on breathing....and vent is still in. His breathing is much better. They're just trying to get that lobe to inflate.
Next, they're getting him ready to put an umbrella in the groin area to catch any blood clots that might come up from his legs. Ryon was nodding "yes" that he wanted this. (I forget what I've told you all, but Ryon is an RN himself, an ICU Nurse. So, he is really aware of what's going on even though he is heavily sedated.)
He has shoulder movement; arms are weak, but can bend his elbows (yea!), and he can loosely hold a pen (yea!); and was able to point to different letters of alphabet (yea!). Just a wonderful report this morning.
It's the breathing thing. Just continue to pray that they can get him off that vent.
Again, over and over and over, I can't thank all of you enough for all the prayers and support. It is absolutely amazing!

"Whew!" is right! And, once I finally found it, my IS keeps going out and eating my posts!
I didn't realize that Ryon is an RN. That will be so helpful as he journeys through this. YaYa, is there an address that we can send cards to? Assuming, of course, that information isn't too private? |

I just sent a package this morning. Here's hoping that she gets it!! : )
This is the address I used. I think it will be good for now....don't see why it wouldn't.
Deanna or Ryon Harrison
HICU - Rm. 424
UAMS Medical Center
4301 W. Markham St.
Little Rock, AR 72205
De is staying at the hospital right now. She's either in the room with Ryon or in the ICU Waiting Area. My guess is they will know who she is and where to find her! [FYI....when I talked to the hospital this morning about sending the package, they were going to transfer me to someone else if money was going to be inside the package. So, best not to do anything like that without contacting the hospital first.]
