Moved to a stepdown unit today.

Back brace in place purely as a preventative. Twice daily visits from the respiratory therapist to make sure he is recovering breathing capacity at the expected rate. Low addiction-potential pain pump in place in lieu of rhino tranquilizer. Beginning discussions of how to begin rehab and physical therapy.

A visit from the police officer who was first on the scene. Two other cars involved in the crash. He was hit by a Tahoe doing about 65 MPH. Both of the other drivers are fine, their cars are scrap. He was the one at fault via 'too fast for conditions.'

I don't know what is next.

What’s next is recovery and accountability. You know what you can and can’t control. You can slap your lil bro around after he gets off the back brace.

We will see. For various reasons related to the drama I posted about in my main post, I find it hard to be optimistic.
