March 16 6:15

We just visited Neil. My goodness, what a good day. Neil is responding very, very well to the reduction from 30 breaths a minute to 26 breaths a minute. His oxygen sat is 97-98. Whoopee!!!!! His blood pressure is good and he still has NO temperature. We are so very blessed. This is the best Palm Sunday we have ever had. We so appreciate your love and support. Please pray for Neil's lungs and remember the Andress family with your love and support. Sue Sheldon is in SICU with Neil. She experienced a massive infection. She is having a good day and has responded to all treatments very well. She has been blessed with miracles from the time she was admitted. Her sweet family is with us and we all comfort each other. All life support was removed from Mr. Fred and we pray for strength for his family. Scott had very serious surgery and has been moved to a room. His wife, Cindy, is so supportive of us. Sam was shot a week and a half ago and is now in a room. His mother, Debra, is the best cheerleader you can imagine. We have another friend whose boyfriend was shot 10 times. He is in a room and recovering nicely. His family spends time with us. One of our friend's father was shot and he has been released. One daughter, Kim, returned home but will be back. Another daughter is here with him at home. Please remember this family. Please remember the two victims from the Igor shooting. One of the victims is is a room and can get around in a wheelchair. The other victim is critically injured. Please remember him and his family. Thank you all so very much for your love and support.

Sounds to me like a tad more than a baby step! Congratulations on a good weekend. I pray that this next week is that week we have all been waiting to hear about.
