Well, folks, God is good and faithful! Tena met with the caseworker at UVA so they could tour the facility and to see if they had a bed available for Pat. Long story short..........THEY DO!! It will be available on Thursday!!!! Tena was told by Pat's nurse that he had to be medically stable for transport and to call back later today.

Well, guess what! She called Pat's nurse today and she got some more great news!!! The nurse said Pat had a fabulous day!! They have had his trach capped all day and he spoke to the nurse, although it was only a few words. He told her he had no pain!!! His BP is normal, but his heart rate is still low. Pat has always been a very active man so they are saying that this is normal and that he is very stable!!!!!!!! Oh, and his oxygen level is 100%, which is 99% better than most of us!

Tena was asking for a sign and I think she got it this afternoon. However, please keep praying and sending good thoughts that they will sign the papers and release him to go to the new facility.
