BRIEFLY-Erik worked all night Friday to solve computer issues with a client, we delivered the computers and trekked to Tampa, enjoying conversation on the way-but alas, when we got to see Tom, he was quite soundly asleep and other then opening his eyes a few times for peeps, nodding a little, he was really zonked so we did not have much social interaction--HOWEVER, he is breathing on his own completely with the help of the trach collar which gives additional oxygen..and it is tiring, BUT he is making it...getting muscles to work again...one never appreciates the ease of breathing until experiencing the vision of re-gaining same after losing it for awhile..makes one appreciate all. Life is precious. Erik was terrific, my sister Donna thrilled me with a darling flower arrangement to cheer, and it is a slow climb, but upward. Good night.

Hi:
ReplyDeleteSorry you didn't get to interact with Tom much after the trip over there, but glad to hear he is progressing with the breathing. Glad you enjoyed the flowers--did both boxes come?? One is for Tom, the other for you! Luck of the Irish, for sure!!! Love, Donna
