Hi Jim - I just got home from the hospital. It was really hard and frustrating for him because he couldn't talk and was trying so hard!!! I was encouraging him to write but he was still trying to talk:( It was really sad for me to watch. He was also restrained because he was pulling out the tubes but he said he didn't know he did it and said sorry. I know it's so hard for him right now. They plan to move him out of ICU in a day or two. Thanks so much for checking in...
