Thursday, July 19th – Day +59

Hi Everyone,

Well, Aaron and I finally got through all the traffic and up to visit Mike around 1:30 today.  He seemed to be doing pretty good.  The nurses had just been in and had him take a shower and that wore him out a bit.  They have him on a special mattress now because he is getting some pressure sores (nothing real bad) and they don’t want them to get worse.  He cannot get up right now on his own and is in bed much of the time.  The mattress will help so that his body isn’t laying in one position all day and night.

His color was better today but I know that his spirits are still low.  Mike just was hoping that he wouldn’t have to go back to the floor.  But that happens to most patients and the nurses and aids are really good about helping them talk about their frustrations and fears. 

It is going to seem like a long road to Mike at this time but if he will just take one day at a time and do the best he can he will get better!

Please keep up being such great prayer warriors!  You have gotten us all through so far and I know that the future will be great once we get through all of this.

If you want to contact Mike please check that page in this website for his new address.  I know he’d love to hear from you.

love, Ann
