Joye's Update 4/16/08

All was pretty quiet today; Andrew basically just rested up for his surgery tomorrow. We're still, of course, praying he will be able to breath on his on before the surgery to avoid going in again . . . so please continue to pray and maybe he won't have to go through that. The surgery is scheduled for 11:30am. Either way, he will be so happy to be able to speak again soon. I was informed today that once he's recovered from this surgery he will be able to be transferred to a rehabilitation hospital to begin rehab to get completely off the ventilator. Once that's accomplished, then he will go to yet another rehabilitation hospital that specializes in spinal cord injuries. It's going to be a long road to recovery, but he's committed (and so am I) 100% to getting him healthy again. Andrew's resting quite comfortably tonight, and is enjoying the Suns game. He's still keeping his humor about him and he's not wavered in his faith that he'll pull through this. As always, I'm so very proud. Anything is possible though God. Good night and God bless. Joye
