More news from the ICU

Hi All...

It's now about 8:00 pm and it's been a pretty long day. I'm sitting along side Tim's bed in the ICU but am thrilled that a member of the Neurosurgeon's team was by a while ago and gave Tim a great review. He has full function of his legs and all of his nerves check out. He is not in any pain and will remain here tonight and into the morning tomorrow. I am hopeful that he will do well enough tonight that the breathing tube can be removed and we can be upgraded to a non-ICU room where he can be brought out of sedation so I can see the smile on his face when he truly knows he is tumor free!!

Your prayers have and continue to be a blessing to me. I'm sure they have played a major role in the overall success that today has been. Please continue to pray that his body heals and we can move on down this road more tomorrow.

I'll continue to update as his status changes.

  5. What great news! Sounds like he will be up and about in no time, which is a good thing because spring/summer is right around the corner. If you know what I mean! Please give him my best and wishes for a very speedy recovery and let me know if there is anything I can do to help out, either while you guys are up there or when you get back. No request is too big.
