Well, as of Monday evening, the little guy is stable, but they are having trouble waking him up if I understand things correctly. They sedated him because they needed to put chest tubes and such in and now that they want to try and ween him, he needs to be awake.
They gave him some medicine that's supposed to counter the sedation medicine, but he's being stubborn and not waking up.
Thanks for keeping Cooper and us(family & friends) in your thoughts and prayers.

From the info I got from my wife, Cooper is now off the respirator, but still on oxygen and his mama was feeding him a bottle. It seems he's not completely out of the dark since he's still on the oxygen, but it sure looks a helluva lot better than it did when I first started this thread.
Once again I don't know how to thank you folks for all your kind words, thoughts, and prayers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I raise my glass to you all

I got word from my wife while I was at work that Cooper should be getting transferred back to our local hospital sometime later this afternoon/evening. His parents will be over joyed that they don't have to drive back and forth 60 miles to be with him(they have 3 more boys at home, hehe).
He's still on the oxygen, but it sures sounds like everything is heading in the right direction.
On behalf of my family and Cooper's family, I once again thank you all from th bottom of my heart.
