Update 6 AM ... from last nights visit
Last night I learned that Dylan is no longer on a liquid diet. He is only allowed sips of water as they continue to remove the fluid from his stomach with the NG Tube. His mouth is so very dry and his saliva in minimum. They will be doing Dialysis sometime today for 2-3 hours to try to get more fluid from the rest of his body. The liver & kidneys doctors do want to schedule another Liver biopsy for Thursday, 5/15 depending on how strong & stable Dylan stays today. Yesterday, Dylan had to stop working with the physical therapist because his blood pressure dropped a little lower than they wanted because his body is so weak. But, they will try again today and they have set up that new Wii game to strengthen his upper body. :) Visitors watch out .... I know Dylan will love to take you on once he masters this game! Continue to pray for Debbie & Gary as they are sleeping with one eye open these days. Pray that the fluid that keeps building up will be removed successfully today through Dialysis and that Dylan stays very strong through this process and the remainder of the day. His Spirits are brighten with a room full of cards, pictures and the prayers & well wishes posted on his blog site. Keep them coming! Please keep praying for all the different doctors. They need collective wisdom from above in figuring out the treatments and continued course of action for Dylan. Yesterday's prayer requests still apply for today. Remember ... "His mercies are new every morning and Great is thy Faithfulness, O God!" Blessings back to you .... and Psalm 22:24 for today.

Hi Gary, Debbie & Dylan!
We are praying Psalm 5 for all of you today from our morning quiet time together. (Yes, Liz is actually quiet at some part of her day!) Miracles never cease to happen in this world! Sorry I missed last night. We love you guys!

Dear Debbie, this is Denise Childers (formerly Cronan) I hope you remember me we worked together at Shaw Industries for several years. I go to church with Tammy Timms and when I heard this sad news about Dylan my heart was broken. I know how much you and Gary love him and how hard it is to watch him go through this day in and day out. If you remember I have a daughter who was born with a heart defect and several health issues 11 years ago. I have had many hopsital stays and watched her suffer when I could help her so I know what you are going through. I just want you to know that God is there and he can help Dylan through it all. I just wanted to say that I am praying for Dylan, Gary and yourself. I know God has the power to completely hear Dylan. Just wanted to say Hi and that I am thinking about you guys everyday.
Love,
Denise
Good Morning Shugarts!
As I type this I am listening to NewSong sing "How Great Thou Art" and my mind went immediately to you and your faith in Him. Yes, He is so very Great! And you are witnesses to that every single day!
Know that Hebrews 3:13 is what I am praying for you all today..."but encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness."
We love you and will see you tonight.

Gary, Debbie, and Dylan,
Hello guys. Love, thinking, and praying for you. I'll be praying specifically today that the Lord will give the medical staff wisdom in the testing and treatment of Dylan. Thank you for witness to King Jesus. Eunice sends her love to all of you.

Good Evening,
We are still praying according to the requests. We ask God's blessings on each of you and for every single doctor or caretaker. We pray you get refreshing sleep tonight and that tomorrow will bring much improvement.
We love you all.
Love and prayers,
Mark and Linda and family
Praying that this morning finds you all more rested and things going better. Will continue to pray for you all throughout the day.
Love and prayers,
Mark and Linda and family
