Hello, this is Zak again. Visited with Brad yesterday and this morning. I think the nurses on the floor have taken to Brad. He gets a good amount of attention from the young nurses in the ICU. He's been standing up and walking short distances (he gets worn out easily). April, Dad, Travis, his nurse Katrina and I took Brad out to a small garden area in the hospital today for about 30 minutes -- he was happy to be outside for the first time in the 10 days since the injury. Hand eye coordination is slowly returning to Brad, he's feeding himself, brushing his teeth and operating the remote with little problem. He's been joking about having the skull pieces is his abdomen and is a little weirded out by the soft-spots in the front of his skull. It sounds like they're going to take the staples out of his heads today and there was talk about him getting out of ICU soon. He has had some bouts of agitation (common with head injuries), mixes up words occasionally and April thinks he's been cussing more than usual. But overall he's making some great progress considering the injury.

I'm so happy to hear that he is doing so well. I've never met him but I know that he comes from a great family and with the support and love of all of you- he will continue to improve. I will keep praying for him and all of you. Love,
Heather Orr
