"There Is Good News Tonight!"

Evening Everyone,

There is good news tonight! Myron has been moved!!! He currently resides in a transitional unit for ventilator patients. The down side of this move is he is back to requiring assistance from the ventilator. This is because his respiratory rate is not stable. We must remember, however he has had all his ribs broken, both lungs punctured, pneumonia, and his body was tossed around how many times? That isn't known.

This is a unit that works with patients who are on ventilators and need to come off of them. I'm sure before he can get to Bryn Mar Rehab., he'll need to be off the ventilator permanently.

He is responding better and can mouth words, and make better eye contact. He registers displeasure to being suctioned out, because he can't do major coughing. There is still little if any movement from the left side.

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers,

Sue


Thanks for keeping us informed, Sue. Myron is the man of iron. Prayers continue.
