Well, it's been 6 days and I am still off the ventilator. Things have been going well with the CPAP so far and my settings are a lot lower. I will be done with my steroid dosage on Thursday and then we will start the big test. After the steroid treatment is over, there is usually a "rebound" period where progress takes a few steps back. Last time, the rebound bounced all the way to the other end of the court and landed me back on the ventilator. This time, we are hoping for an offensive rebound quick tip right back into the basket. My weight gain is stagnant as expected during the steroid period, but I will be focused on getting bigger as soon as I am done with my medicine. I had a wonderful Father's Day with my Dad. I can't wait to wear the Florida State onesie that Mom got me and to watch the FSU vs Miami game with Dad. He got a really cool FSU diaper bag too. We are going to look really cool on the couch.
