We've had extubation people!

HIS BREATHING TUBE IS OUT! HE'S AWAKE AND RESPONDING TO SOME COMMANDS! AND GIVING US FACIAL EXPRESSIONS!  Such expressions include, “The f-ck?” and “Can someone please do something about these overhead fluorescents!?”*

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR ALL OF YOUR LOVE, PRAYERS, POSITIVE THOUGHTS, AND GOOD VIBES!!!

His road to recovery is still long, and he's definitely very disoriented and confused right now - and still working all the sedation meds out of his system. BUT HE'S AWAKE AND OFFICIALLY BREATHING ON HIS OWN NOW!

More come after he's had a full night's rest, but couldn't wait to share the excellent news.

XXOO!
