Sunday, July 31st - Day 42 (mid-day update)

Got a chance to talk to Tim on the phone briefly today:

Todd and Tori Schmanski spent a quiet and peaceful night together. We would like to thank Todd very much for spending with Tori. It was very considerate and brave of him to stay by himself.

She only received two doses of Valium to help her relax and sleep. Last night again, suctioning her seemed to have helped make her comfortable upon signs of agitations.

It is worth reminding that Tori is being repositioned every 2 hours to help prevent pressure points and more simply because we all move and she needs to as well. Switching from one side to being on her back to the other side. They also continue to put her hiking boots on several hours a day. At this point, Tim and Maria managed to provide Tori with one of the funkiest socks collection there is (Elton John would be jealous).

Tim and Maria made it up to the hospital fairly early. They gave Tori a bath and washed her hair. When I talked to Tim, he mentioned that they were trying to get her to nap. They would like to sit her on her chair if she is up for the challenge today.

Amber made it to the hospital this morning and was able to visit Tori for a while.

Thank you,
-Guy
