Darin was moved to ICU, and is resting somewhat comfortably. I've explained some details on the caringbridge website, so you can check that out for more details (for the sake of not repeating myself) at www.caringbridge.org/visit/darinnicholls
He is able to respond to our questions, mostly with a shake of his head. He's rather irritated with the leg "pumps" and is moving his arms & legs around. His vitals continue to be good, and will be checked frequently while he's in ICU.
The plan is, that if well enough, he will move to a regular room sometime after the 24 hour mark.
Most everybody has gone home for the night, Mom & Julie are planning on staying the night.
Andy took quite a few pictures tonight, we'll wait to post them till Darin can give the ok, or when he's feeling up to it, we'll let him do that.
For having brain surgery, Darin "looks" good. His head is bandaged, and he's sporting a new hair cut, although we can't see it yet. It was suggested earlier today that he should have gotten a mohawk before surgery, or possibly that he grows a mullet afterwards to hide the scar. Maybe a hat would be an easier option for awhile :)
I'll post more later, but check out the caring bridge site for more details of the "medical" side of it.
Thanks!
Julie

The title of this post is a bit silly as there really is no question of which one to go with. A mullet!
