Progress!

On the physical side David is making about as much progress as you can while you're still asleep! He's showing early signs of coming around, including jerking his foot away from a toe pinch, coughing when they suction his lungs, and initiating some breaths himself - even with the breathing machine still in place. They are actually starting the process of weaning him off the breathing machine. It's a slow process and one they can't do until he is fully awake, but they started!

On the seizure side he has had no physical seizures. His brain activity is nearly constant, but the neurologists won't make the call yet about whether he is seizure free or not. I think that part of the issue is that David's regular brain patterns are pretty abnormal. So I can google search and see what a normal EEG looks like, but I don't really know what David's normal one looks like. And the neurologist didn't want to give me a lesson on reading EEG, saying its too early to call it anyway. So I am choosing to think that means its too early to worry about it either.

So today I'm celebrating the gains he's made. Thank you all so much for your prayers, positive thoughts, kind messages, and support in so many other ways! Thank you!
