Quick prayer request tonight: tomorrow afternoon, Dave will be having the scope to see if he has damage to his trachea from the trach tube. Although not as painful as a full bronchial scope, the procedure (can't remember the name) involves putting a small camera up his nose and down his throat and will still be fairly uncomfortable. Dave will be receiving some anxiety meds before the scope, but he cannot have a sedative because he must be conscious enough to respond to some commands to swallow, etc. Be praying for his anxiety before the scope and his pain level during.
Also, Dave has had some pretty extreme pain on the left side of his lower back, to the point that it prevented him from doing much during PT/OT today. Be praying that the doctors can figure out what is causing the pain and can resolve it quickly.
I'll update tomorrow after the scope. Thanks!
