Fred Harrison

Remarkable Improvements

Katherine just called to say that Fred is making remarkable improvements. "Unbelievable," was the word she kept using as she described her visit this morning. Today, she said, Fred has been sitting upright in bed and talking about what he can and can't remember from the past two weeks. Katherine said his speech came strong and clear. He asked about family and he chimed in on conversation. These are exciting developments.

On his schedule for this afternoon is another swallowing test to determine whether or not the feeding tube can be removed. Once Fred is off the feeding tube and over the bacterial infection, he can move to a rehabilitation clinic.
