A Little Hope!

We heard from Mia this morning that Gary was following her with his eyes. If she moved to one side of the bed, he turned his head that way and looked at her. He has not been doing that. Also, he followed the command of one of his nurses who told him to squeeze her hand and he did. This may seem like a very small thing, but to us, IT's VERY BIG!!! Mia was going to work with him today and we haven't heard back from her.

Gary's vital signs are good and he is being given the TPN feeding. He has no infections at this time and no fever. His blood sugar is still up and they are continuing the insulin. We've all been exercising his limbs to keep up from being so weak when he does get up.

We will be going to the hospital later this afternoon and will try to do another update tonight.

Gary can receive e-mails by going to the following: valleypres.org and then clicking on Patient Relations and follow the instructions. His room number is 110.

Please keep the prayers going.
