TJ had yet another good (read: quiet) night, and the family was able to get some rest. TJ's white blood cell count is down again (I don't know the exact number) and his vital signs are good - which is making the infectious disease doctor happy (and we like happy docs!). As of now the plan is to try to lighten the sedation again today, so that is also very promising.
Doctors' rounds are still happening, so we will keep you posted as we know more. The pulmonologist especially is who we are waiting to hear from today.
We are literally watching and living the answers to your prayers right now. TJ's lowered temperature this morning is a specific answer to prayer (and don't forget the normal mitral valve!). Keep fighting the good fight - you are holding us up!

Thank you God for this great report. We will keep praying and asking God to do His work in TJ's life and that He will give strength to the family.
Great news! I am specifically praying that TJ is off machines and talking by Christmas day!
Dear Mary Ann and family,
What a great word this morning! It gives us courage to pray more and keep TJ before the Father. With the snow coming down here and quite possibly there, I think of God's question to Job, "Have you entered into the treasures of the snow?" With others, I am praying for TJ to be alert soon and able in a new way, to see the snow, to see his family and to see God in a whole new way, and enter into the treasures of them all, sharing joy and laughter with you all. I am claiming his healing. I love you all and rejoice in this encouraging morning news.

I am so glad you have been able to get some much needed rest. I've been specifically praying for that. Praising God with you over these improvements, and praying for continued healing.
Love,
Rhonda Reynard
Yeah God!!!, Praying and praying.

Lord, I am encouraged this morning with Your greatness!Your goodness! Your care for TJ and his family! Thank you for the peaceful night of rest! Thank you for all of the restoration that is taking place while they rest(in You and physically)! In my heart is to adorn You with praise this day for all You are doing and all You will do! I am persevering in prayer as led understanding TJ is not out of the woods yet, but Lord my Spirit is ever hopeful and standing on Your Word of faithfulness to bring to completion the good work You began in TJ's life(Philippians 1:6)! Praises, honor and glory to You today Lord! You deserve it all. Let everything that has breath PRAISE the Lord!(a very powerful weapon of warfare indeed!)
Randy Discher wanted you to know that the Constance Evangelical Free team in Andover is praying for you! They just found out about TJ this week but will keep up the prayers for him now.
And I am also praying for rest for TJ and rest for all of you; rest physically and become refreshed each time you wakeup and rest in Him as he quiets your spirit and makes you ready to face each new challenge.
Take care, MA, and let us know what you need.

God is good! We continue to pray from the frozen northland for God's great power to touch TJ and to bring about FULL healing!
God bless!

Dear Family,
PRAISE GOD!! This is great news! Thank you Jesus for these miracles and answers!! I pray that the lung doctor reports with encouraging news and that as Tj is slowly taken off sedation, his body will adjust smoothly!!
James 5:15 says " And the prayer offered if faith will make the sick person well; the Lord WILL raise him up..."
I give thanks to God for Tj's improvements!
Much love and blessings!
Abby
