Just visited Neil. His oxygen sat is 97-98. Wow, he is loving this ventilator setting. He continues to do great on the 40% oxygen. They are not going to do the trach today. There was a scheduling problem. We are so pleased this is not an emergency and will gladly wait until tomorrow. Neil has had a good day of rest which helps prepare him for tomorrow. They discontinued the TPN this morning anticipating the surgery. This will start back tomorrow afternoon after the trach procedure is completed. (We all agree Neil can miss a meal!!! Isn't it wonderful I can make a bit of a joke about his weight?) Neil's blood pressure has been up most of the day. The nurse is giving medication and this does help. This has been another good day. This is has been 5 good days in a row, yes I am counting. Please pray for Neil's lungs.
Another friend, Sam, was released today. Please remember Sam and his mom, Debra, in your prayers for Sam's complete recovery. Also, please remember Sue as she continues to make baby steps in her recovery. Thank you all for you love and support.

Ever since you posted that DeAnn was in singing "Come Monday" to Neil I have not been able to get the song out of my mind. It is the background music in my mind EVERYTIME I read your post. Well, by golly, many more days like the past few and Come Monday you will all be holding him tight!
This is all just wonderful news!

My heart rejoices at Neil's progress. We continue to pray for his complete and total healing and thank God for the healing that has taken place.
