Logan is recovering from his surgery very well. He had a tough time on Tuesday night and all day Wednesday. His blood pressure was low and his heart rate was high. And he had stopped peeing again. But a remarkable thing happened last night that no one could stop talking about today: he was runnning everyone at the hospital to death...until Mom and Dad showed up and started talking to him. The nurses said you could see on his chart that as soon as we got there, he turned the corner and made a BIG improvement. So much so that they are thinking of extubating him this weekend and letting him come out and play with Mom! We are so excited and relieved. He hadn't been moving much from all the anesthesia and pain killers, but he was up to his old tricks again today - hitting the nurses when they poked at him and kicking Mom when she changed his diaper. His blood pressure is right about where it should be, his heart rate is back down and he is peeing a lot. He is off the antibiotics and Dopamine that he had been on and was very alert all day. He was so alert that we actually left earlier than we had planned so he would get some rest! We try not to get too excited because things change so quickly, but we can't help being very hopeful right now. We have to cling to whatever hope we can right now because there are a lot of hopeless days. We keep praying and know that God will take care of our little miracle.
Thank you so much for the love and support and continued prayers.
Meghann, Lance and Logan

Eat, sleep / grow...we're praying for you, you know. Just think how many adults you have brought to our knees - in prayer!
