Today was a big day for Brenden, Mike, and Alisha. They fit Brenden for a back brace, they took out his breathing tube this afternoon. The Dr.s decided it would be better if he could cough up the blood and gunk in his lungs to lessen the risk of pneumonia. However it is possible he will be put back on it. He was in a lot of pain after this and Mike, Alisha, and the nurse were trying to sooth and calm him down (what a trooper and so strong). At one point he opened his eyes for a few seconds and was focusing on Mike (I thought that was tender). His stats looked good for today and they are still waiting on more results from the MRI. Another day closer to going home. Continue to pray for them all we have already been given such a great blessing.
