Hi Everyone,
Dad is now officially off the ventilator and breathing on his own again. He is more alert and awake, but is still pretty loopy from the medicine he's on. He's seeing things and doesn't remember things very well. Our next chore will be repeatedly reminding him of what has happened and what's going on, getting slowly more detailed as time goes on.
He is doing well and we're hopeful that this bump in the road (or perhaps a Himalaya?) will be the last for a while.
Thanks for all your kind words, they have been something to focus on while we sit here in the hospital and have truly been appreciated.
As always, we'll keep you posted.

Hi Grandpa it's Wyatt. I heard you are feeling better than you did. My class still wants to see you and so do I. I can't wait to see you out of the hospital! Love Wyatt
Hey Frazier--I thing we're all a bit loopy as we follow your Dad's progress! Thank God he's so strong and resilient. All the best from each of the Goggins.
As always thanks for the continued updates sharing your family news regarding Dean/Dad! Dean continues to serve as a role model for all of us--he is fighting his fight, hence, we need to continue ours. All of our continued thoughts, prayers, and love!

Very good news indeed! Tell Dean Chip and I are doing the happy dance. We are so pleased to hear about Dean and the progress he is making. Take care Bill, Haverly, Linda and Frazier. Know we continue our prayers for all of you. Dean is amazing but the apples don't fall far from the tree.

As others as have said, Thank You so much for keeping us updated on Dean's recovery. The journey has taken a few detours but the medical team and Dean got back on the road again. Someone might want to put a Superman symbol on Dean's door or chest. He is amazing. It's a good sign that he is checking out the tubes and wanting to know what they are all about. If he gets ornery, we'll know he's ready to assume control. Stay strong. Take care of yourselves also.
Dean and Family:
We are constantly checking the updates and praying. You are in our thoughts.

Awake and asking what the heck has been going on. That's good news.
Keep it coming.
Love
Shawn
