Today was a good visit. He opened his eyes a small amount for each of us that came to visit him. When he first saw Marla he wrote "I love you" in her hand. He then continued to write something else but Marla couldn't figure it out. He patted her on the hand as if to show it was okay. Marla told him that she beat Jen and I (Brian) in a new board game we bought and Rob smiled as much as he could (Marla doesn't win games very often so it's exciting when she does [hee hee hee]).
Though he moved slowly, he moved his arms around a little. At one point Jen was rubbing his arm. I told Jen that Marla says Rob doesn't like that. Rob shook his head and Jen quit. We misunderstood what Rob meant because a few seconds later he slowly moved his other hand over and did a rubbing motion. We asked, "Oh, you don't mind?" He shook his head. So Jen went back to rubbing his arm. It was good to see that he could move a little bit.
They weaned him off of all the blood pressure medication over the last 24 hours. His temperature is down to 98.8 degrees - looks like the fever is gone.
I asked Rob if he's been able to sleep well. He shook his head yes.
