April 15 6:00 pm

We were able to visit Neil. We are all so pleased to know the cause of the bleeding. Neil is still coughing frequently. Doggone it, he is doing such a good job. All of his vital signs are great. He will stay in SICU tonight and maybe be moved back to a room tomorrow. He was able to drink some (guess what?) apple juice and then he was able to manage a sprite. We cannot wait to see him at 8:30. Please pray for Neil's lungs, leg and his continued breathing on the trach collar.

Please pray for the full recovery of Sue, Shannon, John, Daisy, Nelson and our other friends here. I saw Shannon's folks. The great news is the CAT Scan indicated everything was good. They are waiting for her to wake up. Let's pray for her to wake up. Sue has had a good day. She was up in the chair enjoying her daughters. Daisy is still a bit disoriented. Let's pray she will be able to settle down and rest. John's family said their visit was good.

Thank you all for your love and support.

Neil,
You sound like our little Will drinking all of that apple juice!! We continue to pray for you and we know you will be back in a room before you know it. Love you, Jill Neeley

Thank you so much for keeping us posted not only on Neil's status, but on everyone else in the SICU as well. Thank you for praying for my Uncle Nelson. Knowing that you are there when we are not able makes us feel better.
God bless you & your family and we will continue to pray for Neil and the rest of the SICU crew. :o)
God Bless you!!
