The AMAZING butterfly!

WOW - what a difference a day makes. Curt's Dr's told us that his blood levels are up to .8 (woohoo!) this AM and that he is doing fabulous. They told us that within the next 12 hours his mouth will get better very quickly and that he will probably be able to start eating as soon as Mon. His face is no longer swollen or scabby and his rashes are all gone. He was able to shower by himself this AM and he rode the life cycle for 20 minutes. We were told that by tomorrow he will be able to walk around outside the room (with his mask on) and that he will probably be released to the on site housing Wed or Thurs.

I am blown away by the transformation - it is truly amazing. When I arrived yesterday Curt was cranky and just wanted to get the F--- (as Curt put it) out of here. He will be getting his wish soon and we want to invite any and all of you that want to come up to visit to do so. It was a hard journey and although not long by society's standards, brutally long for some one to go through.

Thank God we are on the final stretch and now we can appreciate our second chance in life~
