Thrusday update from Craig

Jordan once again has a lengthly agenda for his day. He also had the transition of friends yesterday from  Blake Richardson to Blake Stouard.

GREAT NEWS IS that Jordan's Trach was reduced to the smallest one before going without. HE IS NOW BREATHING ON HIS OWN. He is adjusting to the freedom of no tubes but needs to take it slow as to not over do it. He still gets some light headiness and headaches when in certain positions and is using tylenol when needed. His chest X-ray has come back clear but shows some heavy mucus. Once the mucus dissipates the Trach will be completely removed.

He is starting to work on his speech with the talk box, it still somewhat irritating but he is getting much better at learning how to talk again.
He was given a power wheel chair and is adapting to its use today. He has some tough moments, which were expected but he is working through them. He is still gets tired easily but works hard on staying focused.



THANK YOU EVERYONE for following Jordan's progress.
