Federation family,
I wanted to update everybody on Jim's progress. Unfortunately he had to go back into the intensive care unit on Monday, February 27, 2023.
His pressures had dropped and they had to resuscitate him and put him back on the ventilator with the trach. This morning, March 11 the nurse called me and advised that he had been moved to a regular room.
He is definitely talking again with the trach and speaking valve and they will move forward again with his speech therapist to help with his swallowing. The main goal is to get the trach off and the bedsore Healed up. They did a procedure to get the bedsore fixed.
I was able to visit him last week. This definitely has been one heck of a roller coaster ride and I want to thank everybody for hanging in there with us.
Much love to you all and please keep Jim in your prayers.
