6/23/11

Prayerfully today will be our last full day in Pittsburgh. The doctors have developed a treatment plans that is very very long in the implementation. Therefore they are sending us back to Inova at 8 AM tomorrow so long as nothing changes. John John will be flown back (via jet... ambulance to airport, jet to va, ambulance to hospital.) Mom and I will drive down, and Dad will be at the hospital to meet them -- since they'll be there faster than us. John is still on a ventilator. He will be transported directly to Inova PICU again. He will be there for a long time, a long treatment period, and we are by no mean in the clear with him. We know what needs to be treated but the time period of treating it will be long and hard. John is still suffering immensely. Mom even prayed today to heal him or take him. This is by no means the end. We're excited to be coming home, and that makes this all easier. However, John is just a sick, if not sicker now, then when we brought him up here. He's stabilized, and we know what is going on. But basically we've only just begun this battle.

So thank you for your prayers, but please continue. There are not as many updates anymore because we are in a waiting game to clear the fungus and pneumonia. So please pray for a speedy healing with that. For all you who have signed up to bring food and check in on grandma and everything like that, we would really appreciate your continued support in that way. Truthfully mom will still be living at a hospital... just closer to home. Thank you all for the love you've shown. We really appreciate it. Pray for safe travel tomorrow!

Thank you!
