Great day!
They just finished his breathing trial a little bit ago and it lasted over 13 hours!!! Amazing!! We are all so ready for that vent to come out!
Also, today he showed so much more improvement from even yesterday. He was more awake, he tracked you with his eyes, was motioning more with his hands, and was also nodding his head 'yes' and shaking his head 'no'. Soooooo Coooool! They even had to re-adjust his restraints because he was reaching for things.
We are all just so relieved he is showing the improvement that he is in just 2 days. The staff at the hospital seem happier with how things are going and we all just feel like that turning point we were looking for has happened. Obviously, we have a long road to recovery but at least they aren't in there ALL the time. We take it as a good sign if they leave his room longer than 10 minutes now.
I may start posting once a day as he improves because like I have said before, no news is good news.
As always and forever, we are all so thankful for your continuous love and support with all this. To our families, friends, co-workers, church members and everyone in between....we THANK YOU!

ReplyDeleteHe did Charissa. It was great. We all have a more smiles on our faces these days. Who would have thought a month ago that him being in this state would make us happy?
