Happy 70th birthday to you mother form Jitka, Rowan, Encsi, and I! Boldog szulinapot Edesanyam! 

Jitka has been moved to the intermediate care.  Her IV has been taken out and she receives fluid through her feeding tube.  The vent setting has not changed, but I am sure it will soon.  She is so much better today.  She was in fact communicating.  I was trying to read her lips, and so were some other people.  It seems like she is asking for the rehabilitation people.  I put the kids’ pictures back on the wall and ceiling for her.  Oh, I almost forgot, I took Rowan in to see her today.  He wanted to go there again.  However, after three minutes he asked me to take him away from the room.  It was good for both of them to see each-other.  Jitka’s respiratory rate doubled when we walked in. 

Thank you doctors and nurses at the surgical ICU to “graduate” her from your department!  Really, THANK YOU!!  Clay, Omar, Adam, and all the others, you have done a hard and wonderful job.  I will never forget.

    I suffered a bad bike accident in December of last year. You are in good hands at Pitt; they saved my life! Good luck to you as you begin the healing process. It can take a long time, but have faith and work hard in rehab; they will get you well again. God bless you and your family.
