Dear friends and family:

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. They seem to be working (not a surprise). Anyway, Morgan is doing better than well. I cannot keep up with him anymore during his jaunts down the hall. He logged a mile (14 laps-not all at once) yesterday and today. The attending doc came by this evening and said Morgan's lungs and heart sound good and he is going to recommend his discharge tomorrow at their morning meeting. That probably translates into late afternoon release, if we are lucky. Morgan told him he is ready to go home!

He had a lot of visitors this weekend, and that cheered him immensely. It is really hard to look at the kid today and realize he had open heart surgery less than a week ago. The problem is going to be making sure he doesn't get to far ahead of himself and have a set back. He is so determined to be back up to speed.

Thanks again for all your well wishes, thoughts and prayers. I cannot imagine going through this without your support.

Patty
