Morning update, June 28

Elisabeth stayed the night with Dad last night, and she gave us some good news this morning:

Heart rate is down to 114.

Temperature is down to 37.4 C.

The nurses have been removing congestion from his lungs every four hours, and it looks like the amount of congestion is tapering off.

He seems to be both responsive and relatively comfortable, and that is a combination that hasn't been possible until now. Today is going to be a good day!
