Big news from NY -- Dad is talking.

First two questions he asked. Can I have some soda, and what happened to my head? Okay he can't have soda because he's being fed intravenously, and his head is probably the only part of his body he can feel. He's almost totally breathing on his own now, and his spirit, according to those who are there, is great. That's how life works, the will to live is the most impressive thing.

Now the next challenges present. We're going to need an "acute pulmonary care facility" that can do extensive physical therapy, in Queens or Nassau County, so we can visit easily. Mom says "he is very motivated and his recovery should be swift and successful." I'm sure she's right. Dad has always been a real fighter. If you have any ideas on facilities, please let me know.

Halley: "We were all praying for Dave Winer's dad today who's getting better and better by the day. We love praying for folks like that -- the comeback kids."
