The family left an optimistic message on Facebook on Sunday.
“They gave him a tracheostomy Sunday morning all went well,” stated the family on Facebook.
“They took him off life support and he is breathing through the tracheostomy on his own with no help from the machine. He is partially opening his eyes, and blinking. He is reacting when we speak and he is maintaining his temperature.”
