Just visited Neil. He is doing a great job with this ventilator setting. The medical term is "he is responding well". His oxygen sat is 98. The doctor has not changed any settings. It is still at 10 PEEP, 40% oxygen and 14 breaths. On this Easter Day, I need to remind you all Neil has not had any antibiotics since March 13. This is in fact a miracle recognizing he has a rather bad compound fracture above his ankle, the perforated colon and his lungs which have had so much infection. Neil loved his apple juice. I think he probably liked DeAnn helping him with this as much as he liked the juice. This afternoon he will have a bath and then will be able to have some gatorade. What a blessing. Please pray for Neil's lungs.
We continue to ask you for prayers for Sue, Clinton, Shannon, Brian, Mary, Kim and our other friends here in SICU.
We are sending lots of Easter love to the Andress family and to all of you. You have all blessed Neil and us with your prayers and support. I am smiling with tears of joy for each one of you.

A VERY Happy Easter to you ALL!!!
God is Good!!!
Lots of Love,
Von and Katherine
A big hug to Neil from me. I'm sitting at the computer doing TU work and Katherine has gone Easter egg hunting with some little ones but she told me to send the about message when I got home from church. Von :)
Lucia, Larry & I are visiting Mom and Dad today in Elba. We are happy to hear of Neil's improvement. We live in Tallassee, approx 30 miles from Mtg & you are welcome to stay overnight(s) or to come and take a nap. We live on a lake and it's beautiful this time of year. Mother looks forward to hearing of Neil's progress each day. Please call me at 334/315-8571 anytime. Prayers to you & your family and especially for Neil's lungs. Love, Patsy Moore Carter
And we are smiling back at you from cyber-space. This technology is wonderful. Getting daily updates and sometimes more is reassuring to say the least. It makes me feel like I'm there with you. I'll keep praying....it's working.

Hope the Easter bunny found all of you -- bet DeAnn and Neil enjoyed their Easter surprises. Easter church services were especially meaningful today in light of the miracles we've all seen for Neil. Thinking of all of you today and sharing your joy.
Love, Becky P
Happy Easter! What a great day! We are all thinking of you and praying for a wonderful Easter. Leanne is here and says to tell you all how proud she is of Neil's progress.
Love you.

from Elba.The whole Parrish,Lambert,Carnley,James,Hamm,Anthony, & Adams Families are here together and thinking about Neil and also wishing all of you a Happy Easter.
Happy Easter to all! So glad to hear DeAnn and Neil were able to exchange Easter Baskets with each other. I'm sure that meant a lot to each of them with this being their first Easter together. Thoughts and prayers are still with you all from T-town.
Rudy and Rachel
