Monday Night

Duane and Kim were able to change to a place that is clean and the beds are soft. It gave them a boost today. Thank you for everyone that had a part in that. They are still close to the hospital and should get better rest at the new place. Hunter is doing really well. Duane said he is responding to questions with a thumb up or a squeeze of the hand. Duane asked him if he likes hospitals to squeeze his hand and he actually shook his head NO! They took the neck brace off tonight and was able to wash his neck. That must feel good to get that off. Kim and Duane are very excited about the progress he is making.

Monday update

Hunter went down for the CT Scan on his head and the MRI on his neck. They are guessing that they won't get the results of those today though. His Fever spiked during the night. His heart rate and fever are still high. They have his arms restrained so he won't try to pull the tubing out of his mouth. Kim says he really wants it out. He acts like he wants to talk but he can't with the stuff in his mouth. He seems to always want to hold Kim's hand. She tries to ask him questions and tells him what happened and tells him that they are trying to make him better. She tries to have him squeeze her hand or blink to answer her. She said his eyes still look all glazed over. He is still on 4 or 5 different antibiotics, some for the bacteria and things he does have, and some to prevent him from getting some infections. He had a reaction to one of the antibiotics, it gave him a rash, so they are changing that one. That's it for now!

We are so happy he is awake and things are looking pretty good! We wish we could go down and see him again! Thanks for all your prayers!
