The Accident...
On the morning of Saturday, March 7th, 2009, Tim Dobbs fell from his attic through the ceiling and landed on his back on the hardwood floor below. He was taken by Careflight to Harris Methodist Hospital in Fort Worth, TX. He is currently being treated in the Trauma ICU. He sustained a severe skull fracture, bruised brain, and bruised lungs from this fall. Tim was placed in a medical induced coma to begin his treatment.

Wednesday, April 1st
1:00pm - Donna called and filled me in for today. Tim is receiving a smaller "trach" tube today. They will continue to downsize the trach a few more times before removing it altogether. He also received his helmet. He really doesn't like it. He actually reached up and pulled it off. It is mainly needed during physical therapy, or any other time he might be moving around. Tim actually moved some fingers on his right hand today. His pupils are returning to a normal size, they were so big. Donna said he's looking more like Tim in the face today. A little more life and connection in his eyes. He also started moving his lips a little today. We are hopeful that he will try to "mouth" some words soon.
