Thanks everyone for the prayers! The day nurse, just came out to speak with us before he left for the day. He said that Neil's blood oxygen saturation was holding strong at 85. That is alot better than this morning. He also said that he started Neil on a round of steroids. We're praying that this will help. The doctor hasn't been by yet to change the dressing on Neil's abdomen. Hopefully he will be by in a little while. He did give Neil two units of blood. The reason for this is with all the fluid that they have to give Neil his blood gets diluted. There is no internal bleeding. Please continue the prayers for Neil and his lungs. We need all the help we can get. A special thanks to Goodwyn, Mills & Cawood for being so understanding for DeAnn during this time.

Lucia and all,

Patience, persistence and perseverence are qualities I admire so much in your family. With God's grace, these will get Neil and all of you through these hard days.

We love you,
