Day 17: October 17, 2011
Today we would like to start out by explaining the chair Daniel got to sit in on Saturday. The chair is a medical chair which lays flat like a bed and folds up into a sitting position. They put the bed and chair side by side and Daniel was slid over and strapped in. All of his apparatuses were brought over, feeding tube, breathing tube etc. and then it moves into a chair like position. Daniel was put into this chair again today for an hour and a half. Daniel's vitals are still doing good. Heart medication seems to be taking care of his rapid heart rate. Daniel started physical therapy today. A physical therapist comes in and moves his arms, legs and hips. However no response on command from Daniel. Daniel seems to making small amounts of eye contact today. Mom had the sports channel on in his room today and his eyes turned to it.
