Butch is doing well today. He is more aware of the people visiting but can't always answer all the questions the nurses ask. He has had a few tablespoons of pudding and some juice and ice chips to practice swallowing. He's swallowing better but still can't eat any more than that. They tested weight on his right leg today. They had him on a table that helped to stand him up and he isn't yet able to support his own weight.
There's been a rumor about having to have his leg amputated. It's not completely true. The doctor just said that he has a bad infection and that they need to check on the condition of the bone in the next couple of days. We'll see where it goes from there. His leg is just not out of the woods yet.
