Hello Sabrina,

It's good to hear that Walter is making progress in his recovery.
I'm happy to read that Rebekah is now out of harms way, that's very good
news and let just hope that Walter will recover from all this very very
soon.

> better so maybe I can understand him easier. His kidney functioning is

> creatnine level went from 3.5 to 2.9. We want it to be 1.5 or lower. The
> chest tube was removed yesterday and the cervical collar was removed this
> morning. He is able to move better now. He is still very sedated due to
> agitation and pain. On Monday, I did get to talk to him and he could nod
> "yes" and "no". I told him that I was e-mailing all of you and he nodded
> that he understood. As he gets better I am sure he will tell me or

> Rebekah went to the pediatrician yesterday and got a clean bill of health.
> She goes to the orthopedic surgeon tomorrow to check the pelvic fracture.
> She is moving around so well she tires herself out before she realizes.

> Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I know that is
> what is making the difference in Walter's still being alive and in his
> recovery.

> Thank you for all that you have done!
