Philip remains about the same. He is minimally responsive on occasion. He is sometimes restless and sometimes sleeps quietly. His kidneys get better and then worst. They are treating the encephalopathy. Many doctors are in and out of the room all day. I sit next to him and just keep encourage him. The emphasis is on each step one at a time. The nursing care is outstanding, the physicians are attentive and informative. I feel his care is in excellent hands

Testimonials
Thanks so much for forwarding the post-op piece SO YOU'RE HAVING SHOULDER SURGERY; I did read your work and was highly impressed with the clarity and granularity of your overview. It seems like it is the summation of all of the valuable anecdotal advice that slips thru the cracks and is never codified or appropriately transmitted when patients are scheduled for surgery or discharged. You are performing an extremely valuable service!!!

I am sending you love and prayers all day long. I think of you constantly and pray for Hashem to give you all courage and strength during this difficult time. The Powell girls love all of you. Magggie sends her hugs to Uncle “Philt”!! Cindi, Julie and Maggie
May Pesach Yaakov ben Raiza Pesha receive all of G-d’s blessings for a refuah shleima! Happy Chanukah to Phil, you, Shelley, and all of your family! All the best, Sarah Malka and Larry 🙂
