Paige Raque, the Penn State Varsity Cheerleader who suffered serious injuries as a result of a fall from a 5th-story window on October 15, is still in the hospital recovering from her accident. Her brother, Parker Raque, has been providing updates from his Twitter account, @RaqueBalboa. Here’s the latest:

Paige had a great day. She is off the ventilator and she looks beautiful as ever. Thanks for the continued love and prayer! #prayforpaige
