Update on Nathaniel (from Judi): He is back on the ventilator due to a bit of pneumonia. Pneumonia is to be expected. He's having some setbacks, but then again, he reacted when the nurse moved the tube to the ventilator. He moved his hands toward the tracheostomy. I think that's a good sign because he perhaps it means he can feel discomfort. They tied his hands so that he can't reach that area and perhaps dislodge something. He also sometimes opens his right eye. I am not sure about it, but I can hope. His eyeball doesn't move or track anything, but it is a pretty blue color.

עדכון כל נתנאל (מג'ודי): הוא חזר להנשמה בגלל דלקת בריאות. הדלקת צפויה. יש לו כמה מכשולים, אבל כשהאחות החזירה את הצינור של ההנשמה, הוא הגיב קצת - הידיים זזו לגרון שלו. אני חושבת שזה סימן טוב כי אולי הוא יכול להרגיש אי-נוחות. קשרו את הידיים שלו שלא יוכל להגיע לגרון ולהזיז משהו מהמקום שלו. לפעמים הוא פותח עין ימין. גלגל העין לא זז או עוקב אחרי משהו, אבל יש לו צבע כחול מהמם.
