Thank you Thank you

This past weekend we had a Poker run to raise money to help with Doctor bills and we had a great turn out. All the people that showed up were so awesome and supportive. We had about 40 or so bikers and about another 15 people in cars. When the ride ended at Whiteys fish camp we had so many family and friends that came our to show there support as well. We were able to raise right close to $1500. This will start to make a dent in the pile of medical bills that have started to come in. We also had great support from the businesses around town. We did a raffle drawing with items donated from all of them. I think we counted we had 50 different packets of items that we raffles off. We had everything from gift cards to t-shirt and flags and some really cool Harley Davidson items. Thank you so much to everyone that came out and helped. I am going to try to get some pictures up there in the next couple of days.

Update from the Doctors
We had another clinical visit yesterday at Shands. The doctor reading the Eco's said that he went back and took a look at all the old Eco's as well and can see some improvement in the walls and lining of the heart. The next couple of months are going to be very critical in his improvement. We have to make sure that he is getting enough calories for his body to continue to improve. They have taken away one dose of one of his diuril medicine. This is one of the three medicine that help to keep extra fluid off the body. So they must think he is doing well enough on his own to take away some of the help with that. All together things are looking pretty good we just need him to keep getting stronger and hope that the heart keeps working better. The next time we go back to the doctor is in about 2 1/2 weeks. Thank you so much to everyone for your thought and prayers, I do believe that God is hearing us loud and clear. Please keep them coming.
