We're really trying not to get too excited - these are tiny baby steps - but this morning Bill reacted to discomfort by moving his arms. That's a change from yesterday and the doctors are very happy to see it (as are we). We're talking to him and touching him and encouraging him to wake up.
A request: does anyone have an mp3 player with some of Bill's favorite music on it that they could drop off at the hospital? We've been playing what we have, but it would be great to be playing him what he likes.

That's the best news I have heard in a long time!!!!!!!! Every little tidbit of progress is a blessing. Mikey said to whisper in his ear, "get up, we have band practice tomorrow!" ;-)
ReplyDeleteLet's go Billy kick it into gear. Jim will bring in his 4gig Zune tomorrow and were going to load it up with music he has here on his desk and I'll bring it over.

Someone download this and play it for him... EMG live at Hangar9, 1985. That might stir him up a bit! http://bit.ly/1CBuDe
ReplyDeleteI'm loading an IPOD now. Can I drop it by later today? Maybe some Radiohead will do the trick (one of Bill's guilty pleasures)!
