Day 29 - July 14 - A quick last update

Well, it's 11:15 PM and I'm still not in bed, and have to get up at 0500 to drive to MoHill to get the RV. So just a very brief update -

We just left Connor sleeping tonight, after having visited with some of our motorcycle buddies for dinner. They had all ridden at least 300 miles to get here today. Three of my closest motorcycling friends, plus one brand new friend, rode in to take us to dinner. Stewart rode in from near Santa Rosa CA, while my buddy Pinkie came all the way from Eureka CA. My new friend Brett rode from San Diego, and he was joined by Ed - who flew to Houston TX to buy a new bike, and was on his way home to NorCal but came by to see us. It was a great blessing and a few hours of near-normalcy for Cherié and I - although I'm not too sure how the gramma's handled being out to dinner with a bunch of motorcyclists!

Connor had two different times today where he complained of sensations, either in his trunk or his hands. He also has frequently been telling us he is cold, and being placed under warming blankets. He has not yet regained any movement or feeling we can pinpoint. The RT continues to struggle with his lungs, as well. His numbers remain fairly constant, but without dramatic improvement. Please continue to lift up these important issues.

I will be gone until mid-afternoon tomorrow to bring the RV back. Maybe Cherié, Brad or Kent will post up while I'm gone...(hint, hint).

Thanks again for keeping us so lifted up - your support and prayer continues to overwhelm us.

My name is Katy Hyman. (I graduated with Alan Davidhizar and my mom teaches with Mrs. D.) I am spending the summer in Kigali, Rwanda working with a church here. My mom emailed me a link so that I could be praying for Connor and his family and friends. I wanted you to know that as I am on 'the other side of the world', you are in my prayers daily. Our God is BIG and He is GOOD.

My daughter is in Fort Bragg California praying for Connor. She is suffering from a serious form of morning sickness called Hyperemesis Gravidarum which makes it difficult to do much of anything, and sometimes she feels that God has turned His back on her, but she continues to pray for you all when she can.

The Air1 verse of the day...
"Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you."

Matthew 7:7, NLT

We all "get by with a little help from our friends" and I'm glad that some of yours could be there for you and Cherié. And I'm sure your moms handled it as well as any of our moms would have. :)

I'm really thankful that your RV is getting down there today. I know that giving Cherié a little bit of home away from home will help the family all around.

Thank you for taking the time to keep us updated. You are in our thoughts most of every day and we're knocking on Heaven's door for Connor.
