I just spoke with one of his nurses. They are waiting to move him to INTERMEDIATE care ~ yes folks, out of Intensive Care. The order is in, they are just waiting for a bed to open. He's off the ventilator totally. There is no phone in his room while he's still holding in Intensive Care but she (nurse) said she would tell him I called. I explained that there were people all over the world waiting to hear.. Australia, Buenos Aires, Europe and all across the U.S. and Canada. She said "yes, we know...".
