. They are weaning him off of the Heparin and starting him on Lovenox (another type of blood thinner) they are also starting him on Cumadin (another type of blood thinner) they are supposed to work in a little different way than the Heparin. They will watch him in ICU for a couple of days and then possibly move him to the 5th floor. If he stays stable there then they will look at moving him to the Tulsa facility. This may be mid next week, if all goes well. He is opening his eyes to voice command and also pain. He still seems to be resting well, which is good, this will allow his body the time it needs to heal. I will keep you informed as things may change....Love, Coral

Nice Blog! Great way to keep updated on Mark's progess. I will check back for the latest updates.
I am so glad to hear Mark is starting to respond to things. That is fantastic news. Looking forward to all the great things to come.
Coral- Mark is lucky to have a woman as great as you by his side. You are most definately a gift from God. Give him a hug from me.
All our Thoughts and Prayers. We Love You All- Phillip, Denise, Chelsea & Shelby.
