Brody just got his NG tube out and took a short walk (4 steps). He understandably did not enjoy either event but he's making progress.
We also just got some exciting news. Brody's pathology report on the tumor that was removed came back. It stated that the tissue is all necrotic and no live tissue was identifiable. Yippee! Very encouraging news! The chemo treatments have been doing excellent job killing Brody's cancer.
Brody is resting after his walk watching Max and Ruby right now. It's a new one for him too. One of the ICU nurses here went out and bought it for him. Brody is a Max and Ruby fanatic and Mom really appreciates this gift too since she'll get to see some different episodes than the ones we've already seen hundreds of times already.
I know the feeling with the Max and Ruby, he has Lucy hooked too. But I am glad he got the tube out, he probably feels much better with it gone. Hopefully we will see him home soon!
