Day 17..... Tyler's days are getting very busy. Physical therapy comes in and works with him for about 45 min or so, and occupational therapy (speech swallowing ect.) come in and work with him. Respiratory comes in and takes him of the vent and puts just a mask over his trach. This all really wipes him out. But he is a trooper. They are really wanting only 2 visitors at a time and it must be quiet. Bob and Kara enjoy and appreciate the visitors, but please do not just walk back, if a family member is not present in the lobby, just ask the volunteer at the desk to call back and the nurse will get Bob or Kara for you. Tyler is at an important stage and since he has so much therapy during the day he needs complete quiet and down time in the afternoon and eve. We want to Thank everyone for being there for Tyler and the family.
