Hello to all. I am Kathy, a Michigan girl who found her Ohio guy, Gregg Boyd. First I am thankful for all who have kept track of Gregg and his progress. Thank you so much for keeping him in your thoughts and prayers. After spending the first 3 weeks with him I had to return to MI to work on some things at home but will be back to Urbana soon. The past week and a half has brought many small steps in his recovery. He has been waking on his own and keeping his eyes open for several hours at a time. He is moving both arms and legs and has a fantastic grip with his left hand. There have been a few times when he has responded to a verbal command and he has started to 'track' people with his eyes. He does hear everything we say.....so all conversation has to be positive.....helps with the healing process. He still has a trach in place, requires oxygen and is still battling pneumonia but has so improved from the first few weeks. These seem like such small things to many but believe me, when you sit and wait and watch, each little action is a miracle. I will add as time goes on and want to thank Hand Maiden for the initial information and all her updates - a special and good friend to both of us. Talk to you soon. kathyt865
