AND DOWN THE STRETCH THEY COME!!!!!!

We received another update on Travis' surgery at 8:15 pm this evening. They have completed the surgery and are closing. We are so thrilled and amazed at the victory that God has completed in Travis. We are also in great awe of the surgeon, Dr. Lang's, skill and determination. He is definitely our family's hero. Another strong person today was Travis. What a trooper. After recovery he will be placed in ICU where we will be able to visit shortly.

A final post will be published this evening after we speak to the doctors.

Thanks for all of your prayers. Don't stop! We are not finished running this race.

Continued prayers for Travis and all of you coming from Austin tonight.

Hang in there, Jennifer. I can't even imagine how hard this must be for you.

I think you need to make Uncle Tray take Jacob for a weekend when this is all over and the two of you should make a break for Mexico. You deserve it!!!

(Make Uncle Tray foot the bill for that, too.)
