Today was finally a better day for my husband. They did a lumbar puncture this morning to rule out any infections/issues they may be missing. He was more alert and lucid though. He is beginning to realize that he has been hallucinating and suffering delusions which is a step in the right direction. He's just still very confused and is trying to figure out what has been real and what has been in his head over the last week. Most of it has been in his head unfortunately, so he gets upset about his confusion.
The body tremors are pretty much gone. He fed himself for the first time today. The boys went up to visit him this afternoon which was good for him. I'm hoping he'll come home sometime this weekend if all continues in this positive direction.
Thank you for the nice PM's. We've also had nice support from our church which has been helpful.
I'm very, very tired but staying home this evening to rest a bit. At times like these you just do what you have to do. All else is trivial.
