Doing GREAT!


So, you can ignore pretty much everything in my last post. After they put Ryan back on the sedative the attending doctor came in & Ryan had his eyes wide open & was following commands - while on the sedative. They decided to turn the sedative back off & give it another go. After about 1 hour they decided to extubate him after all & it went perfectly. Ryan is currently breathing very well on his own & is very alert. He's following commands well, shaking his head yes or no to questions, and is even writing notes! I couldn't be happier with his improvement, & I couldn't wait to share this latest development with all of you. =D

  4. Kimmy - Although we have not met (yet) :-) I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you have done for Ryan. He is so lucky to have you by his side. I know how grateful Zack, his family and I are that he has you. You have been absolutely amazing. If there is anything I can do to help, please ask. Can't wait to meet you soon!! Give Ryan a hug for me!
