The purpose of this blog is to keep somewhat regular updates on Walt's progress as he goes through the recovery cycle. I am starting this as a simple means to keep everybody up to date, and a way to keep in touch with all of you fine folks whom I've seen at the hospital lately. It's been great meeting, and re-meeting, you all.
Please understand that the update you're getting hear is not necessarily medically correct; it's based on our discussions with doctors and nurses, and my own observations and those of others where noted.
Overall, they reduced the amount of sedative so Walt is a bit more fidgety now. He opens his eyes and sometimtes makes what the nurses call "purposeful" movements. Lindsay reported that Walt gave a "thumbs up" for the doctor over the weeked, and stuck out his tongue. These responses were delayed and the speculation here has something to do with ephasia and you can look that up on Google. But anyway, progress!
MRI results should be read today and hopefully his collar can come off as a result.
Stay tuned and please post your comments...
