Great Update!!

August 17 - 6:00 p.m.
I have GREAT NEWS!!!! B is off the ventilator!!! They removed it today and he is breathing on his own now!!!! He still gets oxygen to help him, but no more tube down his throat, no more tube taped to his face. You can see his little smile again and he is breathing all on his own. This is the most positive thing in a couple weeks!!!! D says he looks so much better. She knows it's still a long road, but is able to believe now that he WILL be coming home with her and C.
