Cool Aerosol




Since Tuesday Aron has been off the ventilator, he is going through a a cool Aerosol trial. This is a combo of oxygen and normal saline. Right now he is on 20% oxygen but the machine has not breathed for him since Tuesday! Normally, when they transition a patient from a ventilator to the cool Aerosol, they know within about 30 min if they can tolerate it. Aron made it past that mark and is still going strong. Last night Jimmy and I went down to see him and he had his eyes open again. I noticed he can track with his eyes far better now than last week. Jimmy brought Aron some Starbucks coffee beans, and it seemed that Aron could smell them (Aron Loved himself some coffee). Once again, we are thankful for progress that brings Aron a little closer to us each day.



Please keep praying! Thank you all for your support.

  7. Aron does love his coffee. He brought me starbucks when I did his taxes. We drank our coffee and did his taxes, talked, laughed, and he talked about Amy. What a nice wholesome christian man. You continue to be in our prayers. Thank you Lord. Love Angie and Bill GMS
