When I told Andrea it was March 4 today, she said "Wow, I've got to get out of here". Her attitude is refreshing. The lung x-rays are improving, but still showing some pneumonia. Respiratory therapy is helping a lot.
Andrea had a permanent dialysis catheter put just below her collar bone this morning. She was receiving dialysis right after the procedure for putting the catheter in and there was extra blood that a mom gets nervous about seeing, so it was a good time for me to leave so I can be refreshed for my night time shift. She may not need dialysis every day, but at least the catheter is there if she does need it. Andrea is weak but will push herself to the limits for physical therapy. She has some real good PTs.
We are seeing some neurological improvements and those can only come from your prayers. Thank you for your faithful prayers.

We will continue to pray for our sister Andrea and Kathy & Bob as well. We want you to "get out of (t)here" as well, NOW!!! Improvments are little ones at a time, but big news!! Love to your whole family..Chris & Linda Pfeiffer
Andrea, I am so glad you are showing some signs of improvement. Every Wednesday night my Church has a prayer service. It is a time when several of my Brothers/Sisters really seek the Lord in your behalf. Tonight will be no different! I ask God daily to heal you and I will NOT stop until you are completely healed.
Your Brother in Christ!
Thanks so much for the updates. Each little improvement is encouraging to hear. I'll keep the prayers coming!
Hi Andrea -- I find it hard to believe it is March too. With all of your signs of improvement, I know you will be going home soon. Every little step is a huge improvement in your health. Prayers, and hugs and lots of love daily from me.
