Mia left me a voice message this morning while we were in church. She said that Gary had responded a little last night and this morning to one of the nurses. The nurse (Troy) said that when he went into Gary's room to check on him, Gary's right foot was keeping time to the music that was playing. Mia keeps music going all the time for him - mostly jazz which he loves. Troy said also that Gary smiled at him. This is the first smile that we know of. Maybe he'll smile for Mia today. I really think she needs a BIG one!

Mia also said that they were going to change his pick line again today. They said the infection started about the last time it was changed and they think there may be an infection in the line. He is still on antibiotics. Gary is still on an anti-seizure medication which seems to keep him too sedated. Mia was hoping they would discontinue that soon.

These are small things, but every day seems to bring more hope for Gary. Let's all keep praying and believing that God will heal him.

Love and thanks to everyone, Nancy and Bill
