John's Dad Update/Wednesday

John's dad remains the same for the most part. However, he has a staph infection and 2 bacterial infections called graham positive and graham negative. The doctors are taking this very seriously and are treating all 3 very powerfully. Today they managed to get his sodium level under control - FINALLY! He was not recognizing anyone and John said it was just a blank stare all day. He did say a complete sentence, "I need to go to the bathroom." I think it was slow and deliberate, but it's good that his body his recognizing this need. He is hooked up to 3 IV's and has the feeding tube in his stomach. John sat by his bed ALL night last night with him. I think it was a very hard night emotionally for John. He really needs lots of prayers. He has never been through anything like this before.

I can't say thank you enough for all of the support, love, encouragement and prayers we have received.
