If you try to go visit Dad at UAMS, you'll be out of luck. We're not there.
Here's Dad's new hospital info:
Select Specialty Hospital
on the campus of St. Vincent Infirmary
2 St. Vincent Circle, 6th Floor
Little Rock, AR 72205
(501) 552-8310
I'll leave his room number off, but you may ask at reception for his location. Visiting hours are 10 am-8 pm only. The staff has been pretty easygoing about visitors, but keep in mind that he's still at risk for infections, so no sniffles or flu recoverers allowed. Mom and I are around most of the day, stepping out for lunch and errands.
He's settling in quite well here. There's more color in his face, he's breathing like a champ and his sleep/wake cycles are becoming more obvious (I can tell when he's sleeping/dreaming, and when he yawns, when his body's alert).
One of his first nurses here generously took the time to go through his chart and medicine list with me. I apparently sounded like I new what I was talking about, because he asked if I was a nurse. I laughed so hard I think it scared Dad.
All in all, thing at Chez Vinny are rocking steady. We've had a steady flow of visitors, and we welcome any that would like to drop by. Keep up the prayers/chants/hopes. They are working.
