He had a really good night- he didn't need any breakthrough doses. This morning they gave him less meds, and he's been having some moments where he's completely clear when he talks. He is very comfortable and his breathing is smooth. Although we are supposed to obey the doctor's orders (more medicine), we're modifying them to what we think is best. He's most lucid when his medicine is wearing off, and he can't eat or drink when he's so drugged up, so hopefully we'll find a balance for him... sorry that every day contradicts the next.
