Just spoke to Karen and it just keeps getting better!!!

Fever is down, vitals are good...the nurses say it is time to get him up and m o v i n g! Still has the trach and they put in the vent at night for rest. Best sign is, he's getting antsy, trying to ask "when are they gonna do this and that" and going nuts 'cause no one can understand him. Karen is going to go get a small write on-wipe off board at the office store. I asked her didn't they have any there. She said they have them all over the hospital, just none for the patients. Gee, ya'd think?

He is acting happier and his writing is getting stronger, so that will help, too.

She will be talking to them tomorrow about where he will go for rehab. In a day or two, she might have an address for us to send cards to; she'll let me know. I feel badly, every time I've called, lately, she's been asleep! This time she needed to get up for work, so I didn't feel so badly, plus she was planning to call me anyway.

This is GOOD news!!
