Quick Update

I was not able to speak to Sharon today because our work schedules are opposite of each other but I was able to talk to my Mom who was at the hospital today with Sharon.  Dave has been moved back to Lehigh Valley - Cedar Crest hospital.  As I mentioned the other night Dave is having some more tests done this week and Cedar Crest is better equipped to perform them.  While he has been at Muhlenberg, the neurologist come from Cedar Crest so this move just gets him closer to those Drs who have been working with him.

It seems that Dave has gotten the attention of several neurologist now and my Mom reported that he had been seen by 5 different Drs while she was there.  Overall she said that he looked good and was responsive to them more than he has been the last several days.  She also said that when prompted he was able to wiggle his toes and stick out his tongue (Sharon prompted him to do this to our Mom!).  He does appear to have pneumonia again, but it does not seem as serious as the last time and he is breathing more on his more.  They have started him again on specific antibiotics to treat this, so hopefully it was caught very early.

I am sorry that I don't have more details right now, but as I get them I will try to keep everyone updated with what I can.

    This is not an easy time by any means. How ever we just want you to know that we are praying hard for Dave and You and his Family. At times like this you can almost feel the power of faith and GODS LOVE surrounding you. There are so many people that Love, Care, and Support you. We are Praying everyday for DAVE. And hope that with all the DRS. help they can figure this out and we can have back Dave as we all know and love him.
