Thread Name: Kendall at Mass Gen. 16 Feb (and current silliness
Subject: RE: Kendall at Mass Gen. 2.16.10
We went to the ICU last evening and spent a few minutes with Kendall. He was tired and in some pain, mainly from the catheter, but they have given him a 'pain pump' to control that. He looked pretty good and insisted that the nurses knew about the Grammy nomination - he is SO proud of that. He has two lovely nurses, one of whom thinks that he is 'sweet'. Becca disabused her of that notion.

I've just been on the phone to ICU to check on his status.

I've been told that he is doing brilliantly - he got out of bed at 2.30am and sat in a chair for a couple of hours, they then walked hin around the ward and got him back to bed at about 5.30. They will be taking the catheter out this morning and, if he continues to do so well and there is a bed available, they will move him up to the ward later today.

More, once I've seen him this morning. I'm hoping that he will be able to use the laptop at some point, otherwise I'll print out the thread and take it in to him.
