Manny Update

Dear James, Daniel and Emily

1. The neurologist did an EEG yesterday and finally got back to Connie with the results last night. Basically the prognosis is improved, the chances of catastrophic injury are slimmer than was first thought. And he cautioned that we need to wait at least another 48 hours before any conclusions can be made about the permanent situation. So more waiting, but not as grim as we thought.

2. They took him off the sedatives and the seizures have stopped. He is showing signs of reacting to physical sensation and to some verbal input. So Connie's mood is considerably more upbeat, and she was able to leave the hospital and get some rest.

3. We will be hosting Thanksgiving at our house for Kim & Manny's family. It won't necessarily be a sit down formal meal, so much as a grab what you want when you show up type of affair. We have some cleaning and food prep, but it is under control.

4. And I plan for our house to continue to be a gathering and resting place. And if anyone wants to send flowers they can send them here:
1912 Armstrong Ave
