Mark had a tracheotomy performed today, so the "#*&@*" ventilator is no longer in his mouth. It’s much easier for him to communicate effectively, however sometimes it does sound like Spanish 
He looks more like Mark now that all the tubes and tape have been removed. He is requesting a nice clean shave.
Mark is anxious to start his rehabilitation. With all the swelling it is still difficult to determine the extent of the injury. We are anticipating more feeling and movement as the swelling goes down.
Mark will remain in the ICU for the immediate future and continues to be unable to take visitors outside immediate family.
