Durka-Durka-Muhammed-Jihad!!
The CT was done and showed no new bleeds. A clot was identified but the doctors don't seem worried about it.
The EEG showed that Mikey's not "brain dead", which we all knew. It's just good to hear it officially. Nothing was said about other damage, but that's okay. There's plenty of time for that.
The eyes...Mikey opened his eyes spontaneously. Several times. And he was able to open them in response to Mrs. Mikey. He even opened them for Smash last night!
I have been stuck at home with a child with a belly ache for a couple of days. I'm excited about Mikey's progress, but I really want to see it for myself!
I've had some wonderful input from an ICU (neuro) nurse. She's helped fill in the blanks. I've worked with many patients, but not at this level of care and/or acuity. It's good to have expert input.
Don't forget to leave comments. They're being printed out and read to Mikey. His wife said that he gets "twitchy" when she reads them to him and it's good to think that he's hearing your words of love and encouragement.

Well, I'm really encouraged at this latest report. If you really want to see Mikey twitch, tell him he's been out for a couple of years and Hilary's president. That should bring him right off the bed. I hope he recovers as quickly as is possible. Hang in there, all of you!

Thank you for the continuous updates! Mikey has been on my mind constantly since I hear the news, and I've been checking in as frequently as possible. Please send him our wishes for a quick recovery-- we need him to fend off all the crazy people in the world! I miss his posts and really look forward to when he can get back to blogging.
Healthy vibes coming your way, Mad One!!!
