Steve has had a restful night and a comfortable day. His temp has now settled at around 37:5 degrees. When we saw him he was sleeping peacefully. Steve is still on the ventilator but he is receiving low pressure oxygen and is virtually breathing for himself. We did not disturb him so only stayed with him today for a short time.

Steve is going back into Theatre tomorrow for work on both hands so we expect him to be a little disturbed in himself on Thursday and Friday. Its the ups and downs that we have been warned about from the beginning by the Nursing Staff. We don't get used to it but we know that this is how Steve's recovery is going to be.
