Progress Today!

Daniel started moving this morning!! He's not doing it too often, but we've found that when the nurses or doctors start messing with him, like suctioning his mouth, he will squirm! He's even attempted to open his eyes a few times. He will stretch out as well, which is a good sign because we've seen him move all of his limbs. The best is definitely the suctioning though, because he makes this face like someone has put the most horrible tasting thing in the world into his mouth and he starts to squirm a lot. He got another big dose of the anti seizure medicine today and the fidgeting slowed down after that, but the neurologist decided that we can lower his dosage tomorrow. That should let him wake up and move some more. He is swallowing and coughing on his own as well. These are all great signs that he is fighting and could make a great recovery!

He is getting another EEG right now and will get another MRI starting at 7:00 pm. We'll have the results of that tomorrow.

My mom and sisters arrived this morning, so we are all here together.
