They stopped the paralytic medicine that was keeping Garren's body calm. The stopped all sedatives and pain medicine. The doctors are looking for Garren to start responding.

Around 9am he was not responding to pain. They took Garren to get a CT scan. The scan revealed some swelling still on the brain.

When they got him back to the room, we noticed a few blinks. His eyes started to blink (Though they are still closed).

We also saw his foot move a couple of times, as well as his hand.

These movements could be good or not, it's too early to tell. But it is a glimmer of hope none-the-less.

People's bodies respond differently to brain trauma, and it may still be a little early for Garren to respond.

We will continue to lift him up to our wonderful LORD and Savior Jesus Christ.
