Hi all,



Cory's temperature came back down but he now has pneumonia which is not

uncommon and infact they told us he would get it. Usually people get

it before the third day but because Cory is so strong (and youth helps)

it happened on his fifth day. We are through the 72 hour crucial

period and that is a good sign! The head of the trauma dept. came in

to see him today and was pleased with him still. His coloring looks

much better even to me. They are going to keep him in a coma until

Fri. and then try weaning him off of it again. If his numbers for his

pressure in the brain spike again they plan to do a brain scan to

determine if something else is going on. Tomorrow is Kayla's birthday

and we all plan to go out to eat to celebrate her birthday. She has

been upset by this whole thing naturally and feeling very insecure and

left out. I won't be getting home until much later and unless things

turn drastically worse I will not write so consider "no news as good

news." Thanks for everything...prayers, e-mails, calls and

visits...they are comforting and it helps so much to know you all care

so very much.



Love,

Sharon
