11/22:
4:00pm - Jon still has a temperature sitting around 101-103. His latest x-ray shows that his right lung is partially working-it is not inflating 100% when he breathes. When they weighed him this afternoon, it was 127 lbs when his last reading was around 133 lbs, His ankle surgery that was scheduled for tomorrow is currently postponed until further notice until he is more medically stable. He is still on antibiotics and pain medication. Jon has been vocalizing more today in a clear voice: most of it is word salad but sometimes he says full words and phrases. When Lori asked if he was hurting or in pain, he said "a little bit". He also has been moaning and yelling out. This is probably due to his pain, confusion and brain injury, however this is considered normal. His parents got him small Nerf footballs to hold on to. He's been reaching for them with his hands when they ask him to. They've exchanged out his collar with a soft collar and he is relaxed and resting at the moment.
