Day 33.... What a beautiful day today. So nice in fact Tyler took a trip outside. He was off his oxygen while outside and kept his oxygen levels in his body up in normal ranges ( this is his O2 sats). Nothing like some fresh air and warm sun to energize the body. He also did very well with the speech therapy, with working on his swallowing. He is still occasionally opening his eye. Last night for TV selections he raised his eyebrow for CSI but when we found the Reds on he opened his eye. So we watched the Reds. After all his fresh air and hard work he will sleep sound tonight. As far as directions To Children's Hospital. Take 75 N into Toledo. You will go through Perrysburg, over the river, go past the 25 exit. You will see a sign for 475W- 75N split. 75N will vear to the right, 475W will vear to the left. You will want to stay in the middle lanes. You will take 475W if you stay in the middle lane as you split onto 475 you will be in the outer rt lane. Stay in the rt lane the very next exit as you split is exit 19. Take exit 19. When you come down the exit turn rt. Stay in the rt lane and turn rt at the light. You will want to get in the lt lane. You will see signs for the hospital. Go to the 2nd light and turn left. You will see the hospital. Go straight past the ER sign, and past the parking garage. As you go past the front of the hospital you will see a sign for valet parking. Turn rt into this drive it will take you to an open parking lot. You can park in this lot. Go into the hospital through the door that the Valet people are at. Go straight down the hall, as you come to the main entrance there will be a cafe on the rt and the main doors will be to your right. There will be a large desk. To the left you will see elevators. DO NOT USE THESE. There is a short hallway to the left of the elevators. Go down the hall, you will come to a 2nd set of evelvators, there will be only 2. Take these elevators to the 5th floor. Once on the 5th floor go to the rt. Go straight past the small empty desk. Just before you get to the closed doors is a hall turn left. His room is on the rt it is room 1508. The door may be shut, but Kara or Bob or a family member should be in there. Thank you for all the continued support and prayers!!!!!

Tyler,

Things seem to be going well in Toledo. Going outside is a good step. Keep up the hard work and show them how much you want to wake up! Our thoughts and prayers continue with you and your family Ty!

Kara...Hey things sound good! Being able to tolerate going outside and his swallowing improving are all things in the right direction. It sounds like you and Bob made the right decision by making the move to Toledo. Maybe a different environment was what he needed to move to the next step. even though I miss seeing you both on Wednesdays, it is good knowing he is in good hands and getting pushed harder to wake up!! I will see you soon. Take care and call if you need ANYTHING!!!!
