Standing, then walking
More from Kathy Grant
Brett's being moved to a room on the main floor tonight. He begins OT and PT twice a day starting tomorrow.

He got up again to stand and hopefully will be able to walk in a few days.

Tolerating food through the tube, but no word on when he will be able to eat. He's been off the vent all week.

Many of you have asked about sending gifts. He is now allowed to receive gifts now that he is in a regular room.

He is in room 4115.

And Rick Jakel adds:
Talked with Kathy tonight. Could hear Brett in background.

They are excited about his move to a regular room. It will be a much better, much quieter environment than was ICU.

The move hastens the day Brett will be able to return to the rehab hospital (probably Southern Hills) in Las Vegas.

The PT and OT two times a day is a big deal, too, in helping him regain his strength. The exercise, she says, wears him out.
So once again—it’s all good.

I’m sure he’ll appreciate cards and anything sent to his room, 4115, at:
