available explain logical oxygen perhaps randy
Perhaps Randy -- and I am completely speculating -- but perhaps he had more oxygen available to him than those who succumbed. I can't explain why or how, but that would be a logical explanation for why he did better.
extent recovers time
I think time will tell to what extent he recovers from this.
assume hours kidney kidneys laying period phenomenon poorly resulted temporary time
Having been laying still for so many hours and being poorly hydrated for that period of time has resulted in some kidney dysfunction. We assume that will be a temporary phenomenon while the kidneys recover.
progress
In most respects, we think he's making progress.
chew soft speak swallow
He is more awake, and is able to chew and swallow soft foods. But he is still not able to speak with us.
collapsed critically intensive responds stimuli suffered
He responds to stimuli and that's good. He's still critically ill, in intensive care, he suffered a collapsed lung.
exceeded fantastic personal randy success
I think Randy is a fantastic success story. He exceeded my personal expectations for recovery.
brain brains central function means moving nervous responding responds stimuli system
He is moving and responding to stimuli and the things that we're doing. It means that he has brain function, central nervous system function if he responds to stimuli. That's good.
helps youth
I think youth always helps you. Youth always has its advantages.
bit interact
He was able to interact a little bit with us. I think that all of that is very, very positive.
deprived oxygen period time
Was he deprived of oxygen for a sufficiently long period of time? We don't know that. That is something that time will tell.
critical involves multiple organs
We are now recognizing that it involves his heart, his liver, the kidneys. And so multiple organs are involved, and so he is in critical shape.
