Just got off the phone with Jimmy's nurse!

Poopy news: no beds available in rehab yet, but maybe tomorrow!

Great news: they deflated the cuff on his trach tube and he's talking! they also let him eat some pudding and drink some grape juice! Tomorrow they'll send him down and make him swallow something with contrast dye or barium, and then look to make sure that the food and liquids are going to his stomach, and not anywhere where they don't belong.

Please lord, let him pass this test! He's been craving gatorade for a week, and I would really love to go buy him a whole case of it!!!!

Can't wait to get back to the hospital and hear his voice again! Is work over yet?
