7/7/08 Italy Update

I just spoke with Patti & they just left visiting Dad. 
Per the Dr, dad still needs the ventilator, but less
& less each day.  Dad is moving both of his legs, he moved
his head, he lifted his left hand, he is trying to open
his left eye & he coughed a few times.  All of this
is great news!!  Lynnette observed his BP in the range
of 109/50 to 130/50 (lower is good).  The local
Catholic Priest visits dad often, which I am sure
he is happy about.  He remains somewhat sedated as is
required until they can remove the ventilator.

Keep up with the prayers & good thoughts!!!!
