Update from Gary 9:45 am Wednesday

Gary & Debbie arrived at the Hospital this morning to find a wide awake & alert Dylan just waiting for them to get there. He slept very well and all his vital signs keep improving! Thank you Jesus! Gary was waiting to call to update the blog site until they received confirmation, but the doctors have not arrived as 10am this morning. So the plan is ... that Dylan would be well enough, either today or tomorrow, to move out of ICU and back into the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. They will continue with Dialysis, even if he is moved, in order to remove the fluid he still is retaining. If this plan goes forward, the 4 family members will head back to Georgia Thurs. 5/8 in the morning. It is an 8 hr. drive home, so pray for their travel mercies. With the family members scheduled to leave, Gary & Debbie & Dylan will need the continued support of their church family and friends for visit, lunches & dinners. Whatever can work with everyones schedule. Just let Gary know what you'd like to do. Also, I can not tell you how much they LOVE reading your posting comments & prayers on the blog site everyday! Keep those encouragements coming. "Nanny" thanks everyone for her prayers on her birthday yesterday. The family is so happy to see Dylan improving during their week long stay. If Gary finds out anything different from the scheduled plan above, he will call to update. Otherwise, continue to stay steadfast in prayer for Dylan's process for complete healing. God Bless You! Matthew 7:7-8

Good Morning Dylan, Gary and Debbie,
Praise Him! Praise Him! It is so awsome to serve a God who not only hears our prayers but answers them as well. Not only that, He sent His own son to die for us while we were yet sinners. D.L. Moody once said that it was his goal to make Christ so attactive that men would be drawn to Him. We know this is your goal as well.

For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain (Phi. 1:21).

In Christ,
Jamie & Deborah

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
Psalm 20:7
Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips Psalm 21:2
But his delight is in the law of the LORD: and in his law doth he meditate day and night and he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water , that bringeth forth his fruit in his season, his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doth shall prosper Psalm 1:2-3
Thank Father God for answering prayers. Love you guys! Pat Rickey and Julie

Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!! Thrilled to hear all the good news and praying that progress continues on a steady course back to the bone marrow floor and then back home. "To Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory..."Eph. 3:20-21

Love,

Dylan,

Praise the Lord!!! Jordan and I are so excited to hear of this encouraging news. It has been a blessing to see how the body of Christ has united to labor and intercede in prayer on your behalf. I stand amazed at the sufficiency of God's love and grace.

On a side note, Jordan is beginning to have a few pregnancy cravings. She told me a moment ago that she is having a craving for PF Changs. However, she also informed me that she is willing to resist this craving until you are out of the hospital and can join us.

We love you and we will come see you soon! We are praying for you and your family.

His,

Michael, Jordan, and Sweet Pea
