Joye's Update 7/28/08

It was a good day today. Andrew is excited that they are going to let him wean for 22 hours today. He's having no trouble so far, so I'm sure he'll be able to do it. They will put him back on his vent at around 5:30am for a couple of hours and he will begin his wean again for another 22 hours. They said they will do it this way for a few more days and then he will be able to go for 24 hours a day once he's ready. He will have to work on developing a better cough before they can consider taking the trach out though. At this point they say he will most likely go home with the trach, but will still be able to work on getting it out there. I believe God will give him another miracle and Andrew will soon get the trach out as well. Andrew and I continue to pray together for God's healing and our faith is getting us through this. Your prayers and encouragement are also getting us through this as well. We thank you so much for all you are doing for us. Good Night and God Bless. Joye

Hi Andrew and Joye,

WHAT PROGRESS!!!! TRUELY GOD IS WATCHING OVER YOU AND HELPING YOU MAKE SO MUCH PROGRESS. Even if you come home with the trach, I'm sure God will work with you to let you develop that cough that you need. Small progess is awesome.

Make sure you pack the BGE so it can make it home safely!!! :-)

Until next time.
LOTS AND LOTS OF LOVE,
DAWN

Keep up the hard work, Drew. Take one thing at a time. First the diaphram, then the cough, then the thumbs, and who knows where we go from there.

Please know that you and Joy continue to be in our prayers. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

Your brotha' from anotha' mutha',
