Just had a long visit with Neil. We were able to stay longer to see the doctor. Neil and DeAnn have had a sweet Easter together in SICU. We are so proud of them. The doctor plans to begin the closure of the abdomen tomorrow. This will depend on if the hospital has the correct mesh which will go over his abdomen. The doctor refers to this as a permanent mesh. Also, a doctor will put an "umbrella" in which will catch any blood clots. (Sounds pretty nifty!) The doctor said the chest tubes will come out when Neil comes off the ventilator as he still has a little place leaking. I asked Neil if there was anything he wanted to ask the doctor. Neil said, "Apple Juice?" The doctor said he could not deny Neil this on Easter and agreed he could have a sip or two. Please pray for Neil's lungs.
Hope you all are having a wonderful Easter. We are so blessed with all of you in our lives.
Please continue to love and support the Andress family.

I know you are all having a wonderful Easter because Neil is there to share it with you. I am thankful for the miracles that God has blessed your family with. We are continuing to pray for Neil and his lungs. Happy Easter to all of you!
Happy Easter Neil and DeAnn!!! It is such a beautiful day to hear of such beautiful miracles in SICU. We talked a lot about all of you at church today (Basin) and about how blessed we all feel to be able to be such a small part of this ongoing miracle. I know sometimes it may be hard to see the blessing, but please believe that it is there and will be fully revealed in God's perfect time. Love to you all, Kristi Wilkerson
We at Creative Services cant wait for him to ask for corn chips to go with that apple juice. We love you all and hope you continue to have a happy Easter.
Love ya,
Bonnie Money
We are continuing to pray for Neil and his wonderful family each day. Pintlala Baptist Church has added Neil to our prayer list. Your faith and courage is truly inspiring to me. May God continue to bless each of you.
