"Permission Granted" from Arrowhead's daughter...with permission also granted for posting on any new updates.

UPDATE from her Monday email....

Dad is doing well - or, as well as can be expected. They have downsized the trache tube in his throat to a smaller one, and because of that he is able to kind of "talk" a little bit. If he is awake enough, the speech therapist says he can say things like "yes" and "ok," but not much past that. When he does try to talk, his speech is more mumbled and garbled than anything, and our understanding is that maybe more speech will come with time.

The nurses say that when they try to get him out of bed into a chair, he really tries to help, and still does about 25% of the work for them. Other than that, they are going to do PT and OT a little more often and we will just see from there! I am going back on Sunday for the Thanksgiving week, so I will have a better update after I see firsthand.

And I will pass on the notes that you sent me from the FReepers!

WOW! This update sounds very heartening to me! Praise God and all of his nurses and doctors and dearest Arrowhead too, of course.

Continued prayers for him and his brave family and for everyone here.

Those are all very excellent signs!! His desire to talk and to help demonstrates a good level of alertness. It is also good he can control the functions of transiting (getting in and out of a chair) even if weak.

Its a long road, but it least it appears to be new asphalt!

Continued prayers!
