New horizons...

Day 25(again)
Some new horizons in our life today. First of which, we think that Papa might become a dental hygienist. There is this little spit sucker (like those at the dentist's office) that we use to clear Papa's "stuff" out of his mouth when he coughs. Just recently he learned to use it by himself and we CANNOT get him to put it down. He loves that thing! (so if you want to get him a birthday present, a spit sucker should suffice) (totally kidding)

Today was another miraculous day. They have had him OFF of the ventilator since 7:30 this morning and they want to challenge him and see if they can keep him off of it through the night. This has and will produce some new horizons. How exciting! 

Also, we have some MORE exciting news. Papa is regaining his ability to write. It is limited, but it is such a HUGE step. A couple of days ago he let us know that he wanted to watch TV. Today we had some visitors and he wrote "Don't let my coughing scare you." That is so Dad, trying to comfort everyone

It was a pretty good day. 
Thanks again,
The Baers
