7/6/08 Ca time Italy Update

I just spoke with Lynnette & they had another good day. They continue to reduce the sedation level & Dad is starting to open his left eye a bit & is moving his left leg, opening his mouth & moves his tongue. His right leg moves, but it's not known if it is involuntary or not. He has also yawned a few times (Patti, saw him yawn 3 times while she was in with him). They did remove the ICP monitor & Lynnette noticed his BP in the range of 137/48 to 160/90. I imagine the more Dad comes out of sedation, the more frustrated he will be, but we will see. Patti said the Dr indicated a slight infection in his lungs that is not a big deal and are treating with antibiotics as a preventative measure.
