ok day

So today was an ok day.

Cory as of this morning still had his feeding tube in his nose until the g-tube in his stomach reached the 24hr mark and was able to be used. So this morning as Cory was trying to exercise his arms he still doesn't have much control of them, he accidentally pulled out the nose feeding tube and so the had to put it back in. sad, but they said he did well.

Cory only got about 3 hrs of sleep so he was pretty tired today and wasn't as strong as he was yesterday. It probably didn't help that he wasn't able to start the tube feed back up, from yesterdays g-tube surgery, until today at 3pm.

Other than that there has not been any significant changes today. The lower left lung still looks like it has junk in it but they are sure that will heal. And his strength in his upper body is still there but not as strong as yesterday. Still not much going on in the lower half of his body.

However, the doctors said that they feel confident enough with his stable condition and improvements that he has shown that we have decided to move him to a new facility that accommodates respiratory patients along with rehab and physical therapy. We are a little scared and hesitant because we know that it will be a lot different than where we have been but, we want to be hopeful and positive so that we can get out of there quick and onto bigger and better things.

Please pray that Cory can get of his vent soon and that we can have peace of mind while transferring and staying at the new facility.
