Our Journey To Recovery
Thursday, August 16, 2012
Wednesday August 15
Christopher was totally off the ventilator for over an hour this evening and tolerated it well. He did start getting tired ( to be expected)and as he was going to sleep his respirations would start to slow, but volumes are good. We are anticipating that he will soon be totally off the ventilator.
Physical therapy got him to move his leg on command, which is promising. He also tolerated being in his wheelchair for over 5 hours. All in all it was a good day and Debbie understandably was upbeat. Progress!
Thanks as always for all your support and prayers.

It is so encouraging to learn about the tremendous progress Christopher has made. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about Shepherd and am sure you have chosen the best place possible to get Christopher on the road to full recovery. Your family remains in our thoughts and prayers. Take care of yourselves!
