Thursday February 12, 2009

Small improvement in chest x-rays today. Vitals continue to remain stable. Mom was able to maintain lower oxygen levels throughout the night. We interpret this as a step in the right direction. So far today remains relatively quiet. They were able to lower the oxygen level again this morning.

Thank you again for your continued prayers and support!

  2. Hi Stephenson Clan, I check the blog several times a day for an update, it is so good to hear the latest progress. The strength you have as a family is so remarkable, it's inspiring. I know it can't be easy to take the time to update this blog. So please know how much we appreciate it. Give Lisa a great big hug for me and whisper in her ear that I have cinnamon candy waiting just for her. All my faith and prayers are given up for all of you. Hugs, Michelle
