Hi all!  Just wanted to post a  quick update since it's been a couple of weeks...and today is Michael's birthday!!  

Happy to report that Michael is doing well and showing steady progress.  He is getting a little stronger every day and has been able to decrease his oxygen levels some when at rest.  With his portable unit, he is getting out and about to doctor's appts and a favorite restaurant for lunch here and there.   Those things do wear him out but it's good for him to do.  One day at a time.  Thanks for your love and support!  He had a very happy birthday and enjoyed hearing from so many of you.
