Faithful family and friends:
Travis is stronger today and doing well. Even though he's experiencing weakness on his left side, his fighting spirit is strong and he's raising his left hand to stretch, scratch his nose and push himself up in the bed. Praise God for such a mighty miracle!
Two specific prayer requests:
1. His blood pressure has been elevated through the night and he's on the higest dose of medicine they can give him.
2. His heart rate is elevated.
Both of these things can be contributed to morphine and the stress his body has been put through, but please pray that they lower. Having solid foods will allow him to be off the morphine drip, so also pray for a hearty appetite!
Travis will be in ICU through Sunday, and Dr. Lang has asked that only immediate family (wife/parents/siblings) visit with him, so the family respectfully asks that you continue your prayerful watch over Travis and Jennifer. Also, no cells phones or food is allowed in ICU so contact will be minimal.
Jennifer and the family will be reading the blog, so send your wishes here.
God has sent so many blessings, and will continue to do so. Bless each of you.

There is more to come but by the grace of God you have made it over the biggest hurdle. Thank you for keeping us updated.

We're very happy to hear that Travis is doing well. As I've read the many prayers and comments, I can only add to the list of many well wishes and blessings being sent your way. Tell Travis that we would love to have a backyard barbeque in his honor as soon as he returns home for our little group of houses on the block. Take care and wishing him a speedy recovery, Jon Gwen & Zachary
We were thrilled to hear such a positive outcome from the surgery. We will continue to pray that Travis' recovery goes well. We are here if you need anything. We can't wait to see him out tinkering on the old truck again!
