Good evening everyone. This is Mike and I'll be providing you your nightly update this evening. Today, like most weekends, was a little slow. Since they don't do therapy on the weekends, things tend to be a little exciting as compared to weekdays. The good news is Dad was breathing 100% on his own again today with no problems. Dr. A(I won't even attempt to spell her last name) came in and said there's a good chance he will be completely done with the trach mid-week. And it wouldn't be long after that and he will be able to move into the next phase of his recovery: intense physical rehab. Being the exerciser that dad is, he told me tonight he can't wait to start that process to begin. Of course, his excitement might also have something to do with the fact it will take place in Peoria.
I will try to write more tomorrow. Thanks to everyone for reading and following dad's progress. He really appreciates everyone's concern for him. Have a great night!

Skip and I are planning on visiting Dick and it sounds like we will be able to do this in Peoria. Wonderful! Hopefully with all his extra mobility someone can find him something to cover his fanny! I am 62 yrs old and have seen quite a bit, but that I am not ready for. LOL Those hospital gowns leave a lot to be desired........Dee Berchtold
