Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone. Chris is doing great he is down to one more day on one antibiotic and then he should be done with IV meds. he has enough strength in his legs to push himself up in bed now and he is gaining much more movement in his right hand. we are hopeful in a day or two that he might get to go out side for a few moments.
next week the dr might change his trake to a smaller size so that he can talk more and maybe try to eat some soft foods like applesauce. the dr. predicted he would be able to go home in November. No specific date. Our Family Goal is by Thanksgiving, so cross your fingers.
Chris can say a few words now by taking a deep breath, putting a finger over his trake and speaking just a few small words. he sounds a lot like a crusty old pirate rite now. he is also completely off life support now and fully breathing on his own again.
he is working very hard every day with physical therapy. he will be able to stand up very soon.
last night the kids and i dressed up and went in because we could. Chris got a good laugh out of it. Connor was a cowboy, bailey and i were princesses. the kids had a really good time and the nurses had lots of candy for them. tonight all three of us are going to be Rock stars. we are going to a friends house where a large group of us are gathering for dinner and then we will go trick or treating. we will have a group of at least 10 or more kids age 5 and under. we all have a good time together . first we will go see daddy around 2ish. hope you all have a great Halloween.

Anthony & Christina: I wish i could be there tonight. i know it will be awesome. My very best to you both. You Guys Rock. Congrats.

Happy Halloween
