Hello to All - Just a quick post tonight. Bo made it up moving around today. He wasn't comfortable, but he did it. He spent most of the day without the vent which is the beginning of the end trials we will have to hopefully endure. They performed a Barium Swallow today to make sure the "wrap" was done properly. He passed with flying colors so hopefully tomorrow he can start drinking clear fluids...then to thicker fluids (hello Chik Fi-la) and then soft foods (hello Grandma's mashed potatoes) Tomorrow will be another day of getting his strength together walking and handling the anxiety of coming off the vent.
Love to All
Christi, Addi and Bo

Bo, if anyone can do it, you can. You are my hero. Besides the best doctors, you have the best wife who is always by your side. We miss you, Christi and Addi.

Hopefully this is the end of the procedures. How great will it be to taste food again. So excited for Bo. Have not posted for a bit but want you to know all of us check this each day. Best of luck to you johnson's for a great weekend. At least Bo can have college football to distract him some now ;-)
