Slow and steady.

Ryan continues to show improvement as far as his ICP which has remained in a normal range. This continued progress has allowed the doctors to start planning to reduce the medications he is receiving which is an important step forward. Not only is it necessary in order for them to do further cognitive tests but it will also reduce the threat of complications related to being sedated for so many hours. While all of that is great news, Ryan did have a set-back with some readings from his heart that have caused concern for his doctors. They will continue to monitor the situation and take steps to ensure that his whole body continues to do as well as his head.

Additionally, Ryan's parents will soon be settling into a more comfortable place to stay while they continue to be with their son as he heals. Thank you to all of those who made it happen! On that note, and on behalf of Ryan's family and all of his friends, the show of support has been amazing. No matter how Ryan knows you, for 10 years or 2 months, through work or as a friend, we all truly believe the level of support being shown for Ryan has had a major impact. For those of you who plan to visit from out of town, please reach out to someone in town to get the low-down on visitation and thank you so much for making the trip!
