The results of Leif's MRI showed nothing significant. He continues to move his arms and legs more but there is still a concern about his responsiveness. Again, this may be due to all the trauma he has endured. Time will tell.
However, Leif is progressing slowly. His electrolytes are moving in the right direction so the medical staff has tentatively scheduled a CT scan for Monday to get a clearer picture of what's going on in his chest (infection, leakage, tube placement, etc.).
The medical staff worked with Leif's breathing quite a bit today. He is still on the ventillator but taking more breaths without the help of the vent. The intent is to get him off the vent as soon as he is strong enough to breathe... which is a lot of work for him right now.
Leif's sister, Merry, arrived from Houston this morning to support his healing process.
