Prayer update
Dec 16, 2009, 7:00 AM

I haven't posted an update in a while. There hadn't really been anything much to tell. Now there is a little news. Andrew no longer needs the oxygen hose under his nose as of yesterday. He's ready to be transferred to a rehab facility where he can get the kind of physical therapy and occupational therapy he needs. They're still weaning him from the Fentanyl. He's had a few rough days of withdrawal as they try to get that stuff out of his system. It's been his biggest problem. Bottom line: he's getting stronger every day. Yesterday he just seemed to be loafing in his hospital room.
Thanks to all who have kept Andrew in your prayers.
Go Tigers! Beat the ###### outta dem 'cats!

Home for Christmas is not off the table, but he still has to cover a lot of ground in PT and OT. Hopefully, he'll be transferred to the rehab facility today.

It'll be a lot of work for him, though. He'll get a minimum of 3 hours of PT/OT per day.

For sure. The PT he gets in the hospital is minimal to put it nicely.
