Dad is still basically in a coma, but today we were given our first tiny sliver of hope. The Doctors were cautiously optimistic about a CT scan of his brain that shows there might be a chance of meaningful recovery. We're a long way from there, but its something!

He continues to be plagued by seizures, so they have been keeping him mildly sedated in order to control them. Small steps - and right now those steps are all about stopping the seizures. The thought is that they may be related to the brain's healing process.

He underwent a procedure that removed the breathing tube (finally!) and replaced it with a less invasive tube directly into his trachea. It is a temporary measure that will be reversed after the seizures subside.

Your notes and calls mean a lot to us all. I'll update as things progress. 

Oh, and he needs a shave.
