Same Place
Matt stayed at RUH today. He may still be moved if more critical cases come in, but so far so good. The girls and I travelled to Saskatoon with Jacki and her 2 kids to visit. Looks better. Breathing is easier, they did not have to suction as much, and has a bit of pink in his cheeks. Also I noticed he was stronger in his neck and shoulder muscles. Still really skinny, appr 155 lbs, so they are putting a feeding tube in his nose right to the small intestine to see if they can stop his throwing up (which he does about 2 times a day). He can not afford to lose any more wait. He did 3 breathing trials, first 2 were 30 mins long (that is the max they will do because they don't want him to regress). The last trail tonight was more difficult but he did last 15 mins. Has to use his shoulders quite a bit to get a deep breath. Matt is still waiting for the okay to have some water again, so need lots of prayers that will happen soon. Psalms 40:1 "I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry".
