Sept 6, 2010

Jimmy is still progressing! His oxygen is at 35%, so we are getting there! They also changed the mode on his ventilator so that he is doing all his breathing on his own. They have to get his muscles strong again, and then they'll be able to take that dang tube out! He's REALLY over the tube, he wants to talk!


...

Breathing tube is out!!! He can finally talk! I spoke to his doctor today before the took the tube out, and he told me that if Jimmy asks about his family I should just be honest. He is taking it surprisingly well, and he's also taking the paralysis well too. It may take quite a while for all of this to sink in... I'm just so happy to hear his voice again!
