On the Move!

Dr. Lang visited Travis Monday morning and said he will be moved to a step-down room today; not a regular room yet but we are praising Our Lord for Travis' recovery!

His blood pressure is still fluctuating some and as of now he's off IV medicines for that except on an as needed basis (pray that his pressure stablizes and he won't need the IV meds). Dr. Lang also decreased one of the anti-seizure medicines this morning, which we hope will make him less sleepy. Travis is more alert day-by-day and yesterday sat up for quite a while. All praises!

Dr. Lang wants Travis to walk today (yeah!) so remember that in your prayers as well.

Check back later today or in the morning because we want to set up a visiting plan. We know you want Travis to heal, recooperate and not get worn out, and we can't wait to be at a stage where visits will happen.

It's difficult to express what all of you mean to us -- we've felt your prayers, concerns, love and care. Please keep sending it.

My family and I have been faithfully praying for you Travis and Jennifer. Thank God you are doing so well. I had a brain aneurysm in 2003 and survived only throught the Grace of God and prayers from my church family. Love you guys!

Thank you Lord for all the answers to prayers! We have heard about all that is going on, even with us being in Perth, Australia, and we have been praying for and will continue to pray for you all (I added you to our blog website so that others can pray as well)! Please let us know if we can do ANYTHING (we have family in Houston that we can send out :-) You guys are amazing and the Lord is obviously seeing you through this! We will continue to pray for Travis' recovery and strength for Jennifer, as she juggles everything. Sending our prayers!
