We were up very late last night, and today I fell asleep at the computer for maybe 20-30 minutes. The first thing I checked when I awoke was Peek... he was gone! Not gone gone... gone out of his bed (at my side)... he was up and about... trying to find a place to pee! He's still a bit wobbly, but he can now get up on his own and walk around... about 4-5 feet before he gets tired and sits down. He's drinking better and eating a little bit more each time. So well in fact, I let him have too much and he did vomit some up, but not all of it. I'm so excited and hopeful that maybe this will turn around... I know he's not out of the woods yet.

I didn't take him to the ER bc he was just so weak I didn't think he could handle the stress of the ride and new people handling him, also, if these are his final days, no more poking and prodding. He gave me a 'look' during his last appointment as the tech was carrying him out of the room that I can still see in my mind, bc he's never done that. Like he's had enough, IDK. We're taking it day by day, hour by hour. As long as he's trying, I'll (hopefully awake) be by his side to help him.

Thanks for thinking of him and me during these busy Holidays. We truly appreciate all your thoughts and prayers.
