Update 4/25 8:30pm

Gary called tonight with an update. The best news is that Dylan's lungs are completely clear of all fluid. Dylan is also more talkative today than in days past. Gary said that he and Debbie spent most of the day in the room just talking with Dylan. I'm sure that was a welcome blessing for them. Dylan is still a little disoriented, but doctors have assured them that won't linger. He'll continue the dialysis treatment for several more days, Lord willing, before being moved back to a room in the bone marrow unit.

A few more highlights:
The feeding tube is in and working now.
Dylan's liver numbers are maintaining, which is a good sign.
Gary and Debbie's families are leaving tomorrow morning, so we can pray for them to have a safe trip back to Georgia.
