The last word of yesterday was that my Uncle has a low grade fever and they
have him on antibiotics and the tracheotomy has been put on hold until
possibly Monday morning at some point. Beyond that... he spent the entire
day sleeping. We are now beginning to enter the next phase of danger for
him. Days 4-10 is when the blood that was let loose during the initial
aneurysm rupture begins to break down and can cause vasospasms.

It is not something I wish to think about, but it is on the mind and it is a
reminder to us that he is not through this yet.
