Note:
fimbrethil,
coyotegoth, and
roadnotes are posting updates more rapidly than I am, and in fact this is mostly a summary of one of Velma's recent posts.
The short version:
He seems to be stronger, but was convinced not to try to stand in return for being allowed to sit with Velma holding him.
He's had some memory glitches, including short-term memory stuff that manifests as repeatedly asking where he is, and a while yesterday where he didn't recognize his current name and, when TNH asked, said he was 18. After a nap, he remembered who and how old he is, and recognized Velma.
His blood pressure went up in the Stroke Unit and stayed there, so he's back in the ICU for now (bed 13 this time).
