After a rough few days, John has now been moved to the intermediate intensive care unit where he will receive some physical therapy and an evaluation of all of his medications to determine what might have caused the pain. We aren't sure when John will be released back to nursing care but we are grateful that he is in a good place where he is being well cared for.
Yesterday, they conducted a test to determine whether his baclofen pump was working properly and we were relieved to find out that it is. It appears that the cramping and severe pain were either a result of a dystonia episode or an imbalance in his medications.
Thanks so much for keeping us in your thoughts.

Ways to help
Some have asked if they could contribute money to John’s cause, so we set up a fund here which will go directly toward helping defer miscellaneous healthcare costs and expenses. The fund is the John D. Harris Fund and allows the use of a variety of methods for donation.
