Tyler continues to make small strides each day. Today he greeted me with a smile and later said Dad. However, calling my name was only so he could ask me to put the Discovery channel on TV. I'll take what I can get. He is also chewing ice chips, which have become his latest passion. The nose and throat MD said all is normal, and his voice will strengthen as he does over time.
NEWS FLASH....
The move to Gaylord rehab may be delayed until Thursday. The surgical team feels Tyler is strong and healthy enough to have the portion of his skull (which was removed during the initial surgery) replaced before transfer. This would eliminate another round trip back and forth to Hartford for the procedure.
Fight one more round. When your arms are so tired that you can hardly lift your hands to come on guard, fight one more round. When your nose is bleeding and your eyes are black and you are so tired that you wish your opponent would crack you one on the jaw and put you to sleep, fight one more round - remembering that the man who always fights one more round is never whipped.
