We just talked to Mia and she said Gary was doing good. He's still breathing on his own with some oxygen added to keep the brain fed properly. He set off the ventilator alarm a few times during the night and today, but not for long; it was just when he went into a deep sleep pattern. No word yet on the EEG results, but probably will be tomorrow.

Mia said there was a lot of company today and her two boys came and stayed a while. She said that Kameron (the youngest) got the biggest smile thus far from Gary. She said Gary's whole face lit up and one time it looked like Gary was trying to play the guitar. He and Kam and Brandon do a lot of jammin' on the guitars and drums. I told Mia that they should bring the guitar in sometime this week and she said they had already decided to do that. The boys also thought that Gary was trying to talk but they couldn't understand what he was trying to say. He's also done that with Mia.

I'm sorry that I didn't get to post yesterday, but we had a full day with the graduation and then going out to eat with the graduate and her boyfriend. We had a wonderful time while there and left today around 11 or so. We've landed in Arnold, MO - just south of St. Louis and will drive home tomorrow. Mia will be calling me tomorrow after she talks with the doctors. I will post again tomorrow evening from home.

Thanks again for all your prayers and concerns for Gary and Mia. Pray for all their kids, too; it's really been hard for them to deal with both their parents being gone so much.

Love, Bill and Nancy
