The doctors say that Michael is ready for the acute rehab center on Monday or Tuesday! He will be evaluated on Monday and will be transferred via ambulance as soon as a bed is available.
His sedatives were decreased this morning and he is comfortable.
He sat up again this morning and did some exercises lying down.
His O2 level is good and he is only on a Trach collar (air blowing at the Trach). He will be changed back to the C-PAP at night.
Good work Michael!

Dear Barbara,
Wishing you lot and lots of continued strength as you continue on this trying and exhausting journey with Michael. Thank G-D he is getting stronger every day. He is so lucky to have you so near and watching out for him every minute. I learned a lot from your recent writings on Living Will, Medical Power of Attorney, Medications.
May Michael continue to heal and you continue to be a source of strength to him, your family and the entire community.
Much love,
The Wolfe Family
