Matt is now conscious, and understands you when you speak to him. We have been taking a CD player for him to listen to, which he enjoys. I talked to him on the phone last night, and Mom said he could understand me. He still can't talk because of the trachea, but he can mouth words. It's the day we've been waiting for - we can talk to him, but he can't talk back. ;-) He is still on dialysis.

We went and checked out the rehab hospital that was recommended by his current hospital. We were led on a tour by a woman who I believe was the head nurse. It looked like a normal hospital to me, but it was equipped with psychical therapist's and other rehab people.
