10/18 Sun update

Joe sat up an hour today.  We took him around to see the little aviary, full of finches and a canary.  He ate well all day.  Lots of company today, and he held up okay, letting everyone else do most of the talking.  He spoke on the phone twice.  He's clearly stronger, though he's frustrated to be so weak.  Looks like he's lost 30 pounds on the famous ICU (lack of) diet.  Love, Gay
