Trach Trials going well, Praise God

Matt was able to do a 4 hour trach trial today, with no trouble. He felt really good, so they will try a little longer tomorrow. He was up in the chair for 3 hours, but his neck started to bother him so he was put back to bed. No nausea today which is another answer to our prayers. Keeping his food down well and is really happy to have home made food. His Dad went home today, so makes for a hole in his day. Lots of company today which is always good for lots of smiles. He say Hi to everyone and thank you all for the many prayers on his behalf. He is kept busy with rehab for a part of his day and likes to bug the staff at City. Is getting to know all the staff and they keep him on his toes. 2 Chronicles 15:7 But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.
