A positive sounding update from his wife Kim:

Update, 8/11/15: Yesterday Brian Krashpad was transferred out of ICU. They took him off of Ketamine and put him on oxycodone, instead. It has really knocked him out--so much so that they're considering giving him a lower dose more frequently.
Brian was able to walk around the hall some, and today the goal is for him to do that two or three times. They've called for a physical therapist to come work with him.
The flap looks great, and that was one of the biggest concerns.
The plastic surgeon said he would most likely be released tomorrow or Tuesday. Today they're going to start teaching me how to clean his incisions and take care of the three drains, although a case manager will be coming by to explain the home health care they're setting up for him.
He's up to 128 pounds, so whatever they're putting in that feeding tube is working! smile emoticon
