The doctors say dad is doing pretty good. He sat in the chair for a while today, but almost slid out so they had to put him back to bed. He is doing good on the vent and they say they will be getting more aggressive soon. They may even take him off for a little while to see how he does. He was also given the clear to start eating ice chips. They want to start off slow before giving him food. Tomorrow they are going to try sitting him on the side of the bed and see how well he can keep himself up. I am so happy that this new hospital is making so much progress so fast. I just hope we keep this up. He still has a long road but this is a start. Thank you all for your prayers and support its really helpful for us.
