Samuel is awake and resting comfortably. They are turning down his pain meds to try to
get him more alert so he can start working on the breathing treatments so he
can get off the ventilator again. John
and Will Babler came by to visit and see Samuel. Bill Stell from Chapelwood came by today
too. Samuel seems to be having a good
day for the most part.
Jay ran into one of the paramedics that flew with Samuel on
life flight to Hermann Hospital. He told
Jay what a miracle it was that Samuel was here and fighting. He told Jay that Samuel crashed on them in
route to the hospital. Praise God they
were able to stabilize him and get him into surgery.
The waiting room is very emotional right now and it is hard
to keep yourself from falling apart, especially when you remember exactly how
low you felt when in the same place as some of the other families. I just have to keep reminding myself of how far
God has brought Samuel. We have a long
road ahead of us, but we aren’t starting at square one. He is not in a ditch. He is not in need of blood. He is not in severe pain. He is not hypothermic. He does not have kidney failure. He IS at the best level 1 trauma hospital in
the nation and has thousands of people praying for him. We have so much to be thankful for.
