October 14, 2010

To be perfectly honest, there really is not very much to update with. Mom has continued to remain fairly stable. The doctors have said that if the next to cultures come back negative for bacteria, they will attempt a direct skin graft (using skin from her tummy) to her arms and see if her system will accept that more so because of the exact cellular composition match. Please let this work!!!

Dad is doing very well. He no longer has bandages on his left arm (though it is still VERY tender and red) and the amount of coverage on his right arm is minimal considering what it looked like just a week ago.

Thank you all for your dedication to their health and all of your prayers.

  3. Dear Bobby and Nadine and Family
    I'm deeply saddened by the reason I'm sending you this message, I would like to share with you these comforting words I myself once recieved when I needed anything to get me through a bump in the road. This too shall pass, life is too short to give up too soon. You know we only have to deal with what we are strong enough to handle. I know that even if all looks so dark and sad your love for each other and your family and the support from your friends everything will be again as it should be. Keep Your Faith for each other, stay strong. Just never forget how loved and blessed you are.thats the reason to fight through to each and every day. Love and prayers each and everyday until you's return home again.

  4. So glad to hear that things are going well. What about the ventilator? Is she close to getting that out? Bob, I'm glad that you are healing so quickly. You and your family will continue to be in our prayers - especially Nadine. Hoping that the skin grafting works!!! Love to you all!
