For those having not seen the original thread here is a link to it...

UPDATE #5
Good news and bad...
Good--John is still making some headway. He had an MRI and they found he wasn't in need of his neck brace. Removing that has given him some comfort. They double checked all possible areas for the infection but found nothing wrong.
Bad--They were lowering his medications but had to stop. He was very disoriented and became rather irritated. Something that is not good considering his condition.
He was also beginning to bloat and they discovered a hole in his long.
The aforementioned infection turned out to be pneumonia.

UPDATE #6
ALL GOOD NEWS
John is finally conscious and talking. Recognizes everyone and his memory before the accident is fine but he has no memory of the accident or the past 2 weeks. He is alert and asking questions about where he is at and how did he get here. My daughter is hesitant about delving to far into the accident itself. He did insist on knowing "how many people died", his words. Dina did finally tell him that there was only one other person involved But John insisted on knowing her condition. She finally did tell him she died.
He is upset and very irritable that he cannot remember. He is not allowed out of bed and doesn't understand why not. His pain medications are working. He wants a meal or at least something to drink but anything by mouth is out of the question.
As I said before John is a fighter. The fact that he survived is proof. Of course everyone's prayers also had a lot to do with that. We are all confident that John will make a full recovery as his personality won't allow anything less.
He was also dumbfounded receiving all the Get Well cards from folks he didn't even know and for that I ersonally want to thank you all.
I am again posting the card link..
