Chris is having a little bit of a harder day today, but his spirits are still good. He still has a lot of gunk in his lungs and this caused his oxygen levels to drop a bit today. He went to physical therapy and did a lot of really good work, including time on the hand bike. After about 6 minutes, though, his oxygen levels were low again and they had to call it quits for the day. For the afternoon, he was restricted from having visitors so that he could relax and get his oxygen levels back up. If he is unable to get the level back into the 90s, he may have to get the breathing tube back in, which none of us wants.
It sounds like he is doing better now, though, so a large group of people are heading up there to see him. The Paweleks, the Baynes and Mathew and Anthony are all here to visit.
Today's picture is actually a few days old, but shows Chris standing up, which he has only been doing since Thursday.

Hi Chris
Wow! what a great job you are doing.Everytime I read the blog you have made another huge step as far as the recovery goes. I hope you enjoyed being able to see the Fireworks on the 4th. Good luck with your bike ride, even though I know your not outside on a bike but still its work and you are so good at getting through these minor obstacles. Keep your chin up and then maybe your oxygen levels will return to normal. I know you can do it as we all have faith in you and in the good Lord who is helping you through this.
Haven't heard any more news about Brett Favre so who knows, it's all probably just rumors.
From all of us in Wisconsin to you and your family Best of Luck. Make sure you keep positive thoughts and you will heal much faster.
Take Care - We Love you guys,
Aunt Faye
