5/9/10 - Day 6 - PM Post

Hi Everyone,

Well, Steven didn't open his eyes for me today but that's ok. We did get a little bit of good news. They removed another tube. The one that was draining the excess blood from his head wound. 1 less tube...yeah!!

They also reduce his sedation to 2mg/hr. I think I said that this morning...can't remember anymore.

He also took a few breaths on his own tonight. The nurse told us they were going to change the mode of the ventilator which will force him to breath more on his own. I am not sure if that has been done yet. I will get clarification in the morning when I talk to his nurse.

Baby steps today but that's quite all right.

Thanks again for all the prayers. Love you all <3
