dbattman 0 #1 January 31, 2003 Just got this in my email box- edited out the irrelevant bits Russell is coming along he is responding more and more each day, he is still on a Vent, but they are hoping to wean him off in the next few days. He is running a fever so until they get that under control, he stays on the vent. They have allowed Donna to be there when they wake him up. He shook his head yes when his brother told him he was in a landing accident, and seems to be aware (as aware as he can be all doped up) of what is going on. They were cracking jokes about him farting and he was smiling. He still fights the Vent, he tries to bite it out, because they have his hands tied down, so they are not allowing him to be awake long. There is a big poster down in the waiting room that everyone is signing so far some 55 people have signed it, Russell probably didn't know he was so popular. The family seems to be doing OK, they felt better after they were allowed to talk with him. I will send more news when I get it. As always be safe.
