Well today was another day full of surprises! First we arrived at the hospital thinking great today he will get the tube out and breathe on his own. Then the lung Dr. came in and said no such luck Eric has pneumonia!!!! Great just what he needed. So they gave him some medication and will do another x-ray in the morning. Well Eric is doing much better in all other areas! Yea! He can respond to yes and no questions, move his left side with no problems and can move his right leg and foot and squeeze his right hand with a little grip. Although he can move his right arm if he gets upset with something they are doing to him. I know he is ready to be back to normal so hopefully tomorrow will be a better x-ray day for him. He shook his head no when we said he only needed to have the tube for 1 more day and he shook his head no that he was not going to be a good patient anymore. So hopefully Monday he will get the tube out or I think it may be a long day! Finally in regards to Eric he has very little pain and has not needed any pain medicine so this is also a good sign that things are going well in regards to the brain surgery.
I also wanted to thank Chaplin Steve and his wife for stopping by to pray with Eric and the family. It was very moving and it was after the prayer that he started to move his right side. As we all know prayer can be very powerful! So please keep us in your prayers.
Thank you all for all your support and God Bless,

Hi Hallie and Hunter!
Hope you are hanging in there! Eric, hope you're up and moving soon! Don't want that pneumonia to hang around too long. I'm pretty happy right now 'cause I figured out how to leave a message in your blog! Never could seem to get it together before.
Hope you're smiling!!

We are sending our best wishes to you, feel better soon.

Hallie,
Glad to hear things are getting better. I would like to come by and see Eric but I would imagine he is accepting only immediate family vistors. Is there a chance to get in to see him in the next couple days? Would a uniform help get me in?

Eric, Hallie, Hunter;
You guys are always in my thoughts and prayers. Keep up the fight Eric! Your blog gives inspiration to all those who suffer similar challenges and reminds those of us how precious life is and how much we have to be thankful for. Hallie, thanks for the text messages. Ruthie forwards them to me! May the lord wrap his loving arms around you all and give you strength during this challenging time.
Peace, Love & HUGS;
