5:17pm - Eric had a full day and is really exhausted. Eric had almost 5 hours of therapy today but unfortunately he really didn't show any signs of alertness. He's coughing more today and the infection is still hanging on. They have moved Eric into a private room where it's very quiet. Each day, I believe he's getting weaker and more fragile.

I would like to ask those of you that visit Eric to skip this week as to give him more time to rest and ensure that he is not exposed to any other infection.

10:52am - Met with the rehab doctor this morning. He did not have good news. The doctor said that all the movements that Eric is making are basic and that Eric is not aware of his surroundings or the people around him. He did not think that aggressive therapy will help and recommended that we move him into an assisted living facility that also provides basic rehab capabilities. The doctor did not give Eric high chances of recovery. The hospital will most likely release Eric to a nursing home by the end of this week.
