Recovery from intensive care
As described in the section ICU during this period has major consequences, both real time and the period thereafter. This applies to both the physical and mental. The mental part is obviously made up of individual results (each person will otherwise handling) and input that I received from Fleur, family and friends. Fleur has then decided in consultation with an expert to tell me everything immediately (resuscitation and other critical points). The expert said Fleur, at the time I myself stand would be questions I would ask about "things" that were unclear to me. Uncertainties were there for me I certainly did not understand why people around me are asked whether they wanted a drink was when I was asked nothing (* when I mentioned that I also wanted a drink). Also I noticed that my speech was affected and people I do not understand this was very strange to me. A moment that I will always remember that I asked Fleur (my speech recovered slowly) if they wanted to give my slippers so I could walk to the toilet. Fleur told me I could not walk! I did not understand this news and I was determined to show that Fleur was confused. I tried with all my strength my body lifting, to no avail, I kept lying disillusioned and turned to Fleur, hoping she could tell me more. Fleur told me during my intensive care period (which I had lain was clear to me) had received medication that my body and soul were separated from each other. It turns the body in times critical functions that are not currently used (think of running, some other movements and muscle groups). In this phase there are several specialists I visited to see what the status was and what the prognosis was (there may be some situations permanent damage to his brain for example). The doctors predicted that I would need six weeks to get enough strength to be allowed to return home. To back his strength I got physiotherapy, the physiotherapist visited and treated me to bed. Pretty soon I could sit and the exercises were aimed at me out of bed. When this goal after about one week exercise was reached, should I continue to practice in the physiotherapy room (which offered more opportunities and for me was a welcome moment, because I was out of my isolation chamber could, I did get a face mask for so the risk of infection limit). I booked the next week by intensive counseling quick results and could eventually after 3 weeks (three weeks earlier than expected) to go home to rest and recharge myself for the third course. Water was over 2 and 9 weeks had seized. * Food and fluids given intravenously because I got because of the tube and the pneumonia was not able to consume anything independently (independently if I would drink again, the pneumonia can play). As a consolation, my lips from time to time with a moist cotton swab moistened.
