The coma at the moment is medically induced. When the medications are weaned or reduced, Mr. McCloy does move; Mr. McCloy does bite down on his tube; Mr. McCloy does appear to flicker his eyelids. All those things are true. I don't want to let anyone think that is some clear indication whatsoever of the nature of the extent of his recovery or injury.
