April 15 10:30 am

My goodness, Neil and DeAnn had a good night. They both agree this is much better than SICU. Neil does not have any temperature. The infectious disease doctor came by and is pleased with the progress with the infection. He will continue to hear from cultures. Physical therapy came by and sat Neil up and he was able to hold himself up a couple of minutes. This is great progress. Please pray for Neil's lungs, leg and continued breathing on the trach collar.


Sue cannot let Neil get ahead of her, so she is "busting" out of SICU today if there is an available room. She is doing great and we cannot wait to see her on this end of the hall. Also, Daisy is doing very good and might get a room today. We are so pleased for her.




There are no words to describe how grateful we are for your prayers and support. Thanks so very much to each of you.

That is so wonderful for you to be in a room Neil. Now DeAnn can stay with you more. I know you will enjoy that. Thank God for your progress. We just keep praying that you will continue to heal until you are as good as new. You will have a new life after all this. We love you all and keep you in our prayers.

It is so exciting that you guys have gotten to change scenery and rooms! I know Neil will love spending more time with all of you. I am continuing to pray for all infection to go away and for Neil's strength to continue to increase. I am still so proud of all of you of how you have hung in every second with optimism, faith, and precious love. Please know I am celebrating Neil's success today. I love you all!

This is tremendous progress. Praise God for his marvelous miracles. He is the rewarder of those who diligently seek His face. Lucia, God has rewarded your declarations of faith and your steadfast committment to thank God for your son's healing. Jesus has been the author and developer of not only your faith but the faith of all those who stand with you in praise for Neil's complete and total healing.

Congrats Neil and DeAnn for the big move.
The entire Jones extended family is praising God for these miracles.
It is so inspiring to see the miracles you and the other residents of SICU have received through your outreach and Faith in our God.
What a mighty God is He.
We love you all.
