The view out of the atrium waiting room window is just breathtaking today-Snow is falling and everything is covered in a thick blanket of white-over six inches worth! Chris continues to improve. The external pacemaker wires have been removed and, they will be removing the last chest tube sometime this morning. The goal for today will be to wean him off of the vent-not exactly sure when it will happen but the plan is for today because Chris is doing so well. I told Chris about Louisville's loss to Rutgers-I am sure it is not easy to grin with a breathing tube in your mouth, but grin he did! His spirits are very good this morning as are his numbers. I do believe he is in the bend of the corner he needed to turn for recovery. Have a great day today-we plan on it. Please keep the thoughts and prayers heading north-they are definitely being heard.

Update-Chris continues to do well-the vent has been turned down, we are watching a movie and it is still snowing. It was supposed to be 2-4 inches of snow. Right now Rochester has 9 inches and it is still coming down. I am glad we do not have to get out in it. MJ

I'm so glad that he is doing better, and that you are enjoying all that snow, please keep it up your way. OH and tell Chris that I sure hope he enjoyed that Rutgers win, now just how does he expect to get home from the Airport..... :-)
Just kidding, MAYBE..... Keep the great news coming and as always, you all are in our thoughts and prayers.

OH My Gosh - what a wonderful report! I would say that he is "rounding the bend" in the recovery process. Perhaps it is the athletic reports which are producing the adrenalin. Thoughts and prayers coming your way.
