Friday update from Scott

Just talked to Debbie - she said that dad looks a lot better today and has been very alert at times today.

He was able to wean for 12 hours yesterday, which is the best day he's had since going back to RML. He could have gone longer (his oxygen sat was still at 100), but the respiratory staff decided he could use some rest and would try again today.

Clearly the additional antibiotics they put him on earlier this week are helping. He still has secretions from his lungs, but they're thinner and clearer than they've been in a while.

Dad was also excited to hear about Jordan's unexpected scholarship she was awarded at the ceremony last night. She got one of the bigger awards of the evening.
