Ed has been less responsive the last couple of days, keeping his eyes closed although he still yawns, stretches, and turns his head. I have been told that this is not unusual during recovery from a coma, since the brain may have difficulty coping with returning cognizance and "retreats".
So, on Thursday Ed was very responsive. On Friday and Saturday, moderately responsive with eyes partially open. On Sunday and Monday, eyes closed.
This is essentially the pattern that we saw a week ago (eyes open on Sunday, then eyes closed Monday through Wednesday).
We're practicing patience!

Marian - I read your blog today concerning Ed. I spent time praying for you and Ed. I will continue to pray for both of you during this time.
