9.21.2010

Eric had another good day on the 19th. He is still needing to eat more. The hospital was able to sit him up in a wheelchair and took him outside for 20 minutes. It really wore him out. He had a lot of visitor this past weekend.

On Monday there was more good news. The tubes that were in Eric right lung were finally removed. There is a good chance that Eric could be moving to rehabilitation today or tomorrow. The rehabilitation center is located on 38th street.

    Glad to hear that you are being released to the rehab center in a couple days. Stay strong and stay focussed. EAT! I know that hospital food is not that great but you have to eat to get stronger. You and your family remain in my prayers.
