"I'm doing great!"

If you ask Drew how he's doing, he responds with a smile/dimple and says, "I'm doing great!" He is, too! Everyday he gets stronger and stronger. The doctors determined his post surgical problems were a result of two medicines that didn't sit right with him. They have since discontinued those meds and Drew is racing to recovery. He even got dressed in real clothes this morning. Occupational and Physical Therapy are in with him and he is playing Wii baseball. The nurses are estimating we will get to head back to Austin on Monday, but we haven't talked to Dr. Wheless yet today (still hoping for Sunday.) He is eating incredibly well. They just need to finish up a couple IV medicines. Now, he is playing the guitar for us. He is definitely getting back to his old self and we are trilled to see his progress! Thank you so much for all the prayers and support. We are forever grateful!!!!!

Yeah! We are so happy Drew is eating, playing games and coming home soon. Praise God! This whole time I kept hearing Drew saying "This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it." He is so precious.
Love, Raina & family

I can hardly wait to share this with the class in the morning. We are headed to Down Home Ranch for a day of hard labor, but before we leave we will celebrate the great news!
