5pm. I just spoke with Everett. Tami was in the room with Kevin. Kevin is responding to Sarah! He has shaken his head no to one question and nodded his head 3 times in answer to three other questions. Although he is responding to Sarah's questions, he is not as cognitive as they'd like him to be. He is still under quite a bit of sedation. They had to increase the sedation last night as his blood pressure was going too high. A tracheotomy is planned for tomorrow. This is a good thing as it means he is more stable. He still needs help with breathing, but as hecomes out of the sedation more and more he will become more aware of his surroundings and will not want the tube down his throat. Keep praying, Karin.
