OT- prayer request

[Breandan]

UPDATE! Just found out that Jeff is off the meds that induced the coma and is awake for short periods. He's showing strong recovery signs, including strongly squeezing fingers with BOTH hands, which is a good sign that he won't lose motor functions in his left side to any notable extent. When he is awake, he is recognizing people and smiling a lot around the ventilator, but still intubated, so he can't talk yet. The doctors say he is making a remarkable recovery, and are very, very happy with his progress. Hope that trend continues *crosses fingers* and thanks everyone for the prayers

That's great to hear! ...except for the vent. Those things suck! (IMO, the absolute worst thing about open-heart surgery...)

So glad to hear he's making an improvement!

Read your fb post earlier that Jeff is conscious and improving, and just now found this thread over here.  Glad to hear he's starting to come out of it, and I'll continue to send prayers and healing energy!  Hoping for the best possible outcome for him, and will be keeping him in my thoughts.
