March 18 8:50 pm


My, my these boys do have a good time at the beach. If you ever have Buford, Blake and Neil on the beach together, you might should walk or run the other way. I am smiling!!!!!!

Neil is ending this day on a fabulous note. His oxygen sat is 97. Yea!!!!! He has responded so well all day with this ventilator setting. The setting is at 15 PEEP, 20 breaths a minute and 40% oxygen. His blood pressure is within normal limits. How grand!!!!! We look forward to Neil's progress tomorrow. We are fairly sure he will start the day having the trach procedure and we believe this will take place in the morning. Please pray for Neil's lungs.

Please remember Sue in your prayers as she has had a restful day and hope she makes more progress tomorrow. Kristie has continued to make progress and needs our prayers. Fred's family continues to need our prayers.

Hello Grantham family. I am Cindy and Scott's son that got discharged today. She wanted me to get online and tell you all that she is so sorry that they did not get to come through the "cheering squad". She said she went to get the car and the nurse took Scott out a different way. I wanted to thank you Mrs. Grantham for looking after my mom's things while she went back to see Scott and also all of the wonderful things yall did for her such as making a fresh pot of coffee before you left for the night among many other things. You are definitely an example of God's grace. We pray for Neil every day and keep up with the blog. We know he is going to pull through and be fine with all the support he has from you all. My wife and I would love to bring you all dinner one night. Please email me when a good night to bring something to you all. I know you can only eat so much Chappy's before it gets quite old. It would be the least we could do for making Scott and Mom's stay at the hospital bearable. You can contact me through my email which is wholliday@controlproductsinc.net or kimsmanbill@gmail.com . Thanks again for being some caring people in your dark times. God will truly bless you.

In His Love,
Bill Holliday and Family

Please know you are all in our thoughts and prayers. We find the need to hear from Neil before going to bed at night. Our prayer is that you all have a very restful night. Can't wait to hear what a great day he's having tomorrow.
Love to you all,
Eddie & Melinda

Dear Grantham Family & Friends,

I have been keeping up with Neil's progress since my very good friends, Scott and Cindy, let us know of your situation. I went back and read all the posts from the first one and am so pleased to see the miracles that occured and continue to occur. Thank you for thinking of Scott and Cindy during you own time of need. I will continue to pray for Neil's progress and your strength through this miraculous, but trying time. May God bless each of you.
