Sunday Morning Update





The guys look great today! Yesterday was a rough day but it's amazing how much progress they have both made in 24 hours. Scott is unhooked from his IV and has on regular clothes. He is getting up and down much more easily and may get to eat food today. He has had some jello this morning and I think that tasted good. He is having to do some breathing exercises because of some crackling in his lungs, but other than that the doctors were pleased with how he is doing. Now for the GREAT NEWS . . . Buford's creatinine level is 1.4 which is on the high side of normal!! We have named his new kidney "Scufford, the happy bean." :) He has been up and down walking and they are putting him on a normal diet. It is funny the things you celebrate in a hospital! There are certain bodily functions they have asked us to look for and we have cheered when they happen!! :) This is a picture from this morning when we visited Buford. We are still on track to be released tomorrow and hoping Buford will get out on Tuesday. Scott says he will NOT stay here more than one more night, but we'll see . . . Thank you again so much for all of the prayers and support. We are praising God again this morning for all he has done!!
Psalm 118:28 You are my God, and I will give you thanks; you are my God, and I will exalt you. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.

Great to hear how well things are going. God is good and many are paying for you both! Phil. 1:6 says that God who began this good work will finish it!
