Steve napped off and on all morning so by early evening he was awake. I think he was getting ready to see Andi who flew in today around 5:00
Steve's progress this week is once again miraculous. He moved from 5th floor to 3rd floor. A patient is put on a floor according to how much care he/she needs. 5th floor is ICU and Almost ICU. 4th floor is Acute care. The lower the floor number, the less care the patient needs. Steve was on 5th floor, skipped 4th floor and is now on 3rd floor.
Andi was amazed at how much her dad had changed over this past week. She said, "He is now like my dad."
Roland, a co-worker, came in and after visiting with Steve for a while told him it was nice to be able to talk to him and carry on a real conversation.
Steve was so happy today. He was excited Andi was coming back to Denver and greeted her with a big smile and a cheerful greeting. He was grateful for the help he was getting and wanted to sit more, walk more and just do all he could to get stronger and out of the hospital.

Steve, welcome back!! We will continue to pray for you to get stronger and for you to be patient with the healing process, with those who love you and with the staff at the hospital
Andi will be returning tomorrow so good night and thank you. It has been a privilege to be here.
