Terrific tuesday post, week #2

Shane cleared some major hurdles today.... first, he was ext abated or the tube was removed from his throat, he sat up in bed and he remembered the names of his four kids. The first thing he asked for was a Diet Pepsi, which for those of you who really know him, is not a big surprise. He is still pretty sedated for the pain, but he is site for soar eyes!!!! His grafts are still good and his lungs are crystal clear today. He is still fighting a couple of infections, but will hopefully these will subside by the weekend.
I am so humbled by the love our Savior shows us in our times of need and for the love that has been shown to us by so many of you.
