this morning my granddad had the tracheostomy which thankfully went well. the purpose of it was to make it easier to take care of any problems that may arise with the ventilator. he will also have less irritation in his throat when they go to take out the ventilator eventually.
we are still playing the waiting game on when/how he will wake up. it doesn't seem likely that any more tests will be done until the first of the week. he still has some (expected) swelling on his face and jaw line from the surgery. however, the head surgeon is very pleased with the progress of his healing with that.
i guess this might not be much a new update, but it is all we know so far. keep praying
