Helpless

We are only allowed limited time wih my dad, not allowed to speak to him or touch him. It seems that if he recognizes our voices or sees us he becomes agitated and tries to get out of bed and remove his tubes.

It feels as if he is not improving as quickly as they had anticipated but I don't know if that is the case or if it was just wishful thinking on our part. I feel like the longer he is in the ICU the less hope we have. I didn't feel like that until today.

So it is still a waiting game. And waiting... And waiting...

There is nothing I can do here but it is difficult to not be here "just in case".
