The Docs have scheduled a meeting with Mum, me and my aunt (Papa's sister) tomorrow morning. I am not sure what the docs are going to discuss with us. Perhaps, its about the heart valve surgery. The surgery has its risks, but with the complication of Papa's health condition, there is even greater risk. Sigh...will see what the docs says.
Papa is less sedated these days. He is responsive, and as usual quite restless. I noticed too that 2 of his toes have turned black. I asked the nurse if his toes are gangrene, but she did not give an affirmative answer. Papa is not diabetic so the sight took me aback. She said that the toes turned black because of the poor blood circulation due to Papa being bedbound, and also the lack of oxygen circulating in his body.
Sigh...I hope that there will not be further complications. will see what the Docs say tomorrow
