Hospital stay day 6

Adam continues to improve each day. He is tired from fevers but got out of bed today on his own. We are still waiting for a bed in the step down unit but they are currently full. At this point we still expect him to remain in the hospital for another week though he could possibly go "home" as soon as a few days.

I have had the time to move the RV back down to San Diego and am only 5 miles from the hospital. I've arranged to have an interior detail done which will make me feel like it is a clean place for him to come back to when he is ready. Besides it will make me feel better to get rid of all the Southwest dust we accumulated.

Sequoia misses Adam terribly. It's so sad that when I walk in the door he says hello to me and then keeps looking back at the door waiting for Adam to walk in. The first night we were able to collect the dog from our friends' house he ran into the RV and made a beeline for the bedroom. He knew he hadn't seen Adam for a few days and that was the place he usually finds him. He even ran to his side of the bed. It is amazing how much our furry friends really understand and how easy it is for them to show love. Once Adam moves out of the ICU I am planning to bring Sequoia to visit. It will make them both happy.

Thank you for all your thoughts. It makes us feel closer to home and surrounded by your love even though we are far away. I continue to pass them along to Adam. Having my new phone has been great because I can easily keep up with my email and surf the web. We were even able to Skype our nieces and nephews that made us all laugh. Technology is so useful!
