I just received an update from Gary. The doctors decided to keep Dylan sedated and using the ventilator all day today, and they plan to do the same tomorrow. Twice today Dylan passed a good bit of blood through his bowels, and while the liver doctors are not particularly concerned about this, another doctor has ordered a CT scan tonight to make sure nothing is abnormal. Gary and Debbie should be able to get the results by about 4:00am. Also, doctors had to give Dylan 4 units of blood today (and 4 yesterday), so it's clear that he's losing blood somewhere in addition to what was passed today. Pray that the doctors will have wisdom and skill to find the source of the bleeding, and pray for a CT scan that reveals nothing abnormal in his bowels.
Gary and Debbie plan to go back to their room to get some sleep tonight (albeit only until 4am), so let's also pray that their sleep is very restful.
Thanks to all who are praying for the Shugarts around the US and around the world. They are so grateful for your love and support.
Kyle

Dylan, Debbie, and Gary,
Praise God for the great report on Dylan progress. I had Pam to stand in for him at church wednesday night and annointed with oil for his healing. I know God has his hands on him and you. I send hugs and kisses to you. We love you so.
