...the cloud has moved and camp has been broken !
...Last night we all left the hospital for a much needed good nights rest !! Especially Christina !! We should all be so lucky to have a "Christina" going to bat for us, she is a gift from God to Jared and the Waters family ! The news today from the doc's is that they HOPE in a couple days to start the process of getting Jared off the vent tube and also to possibly begin small amounts of feeding through the tube to test out his stomach. These are big steps and they are being very careful in taking their time...we are hopeful. We are asking for prayer for those two "events" and also praying against any kind of infection. They will let the family "untie" his hands and move his arms around which he really likes and Christina gives his legs a work out too! He is still only able to communicate with us with nods and shaking his head and he is semi-awake through out the day and we try not to let him get frustrated in trying to communicate with us when we play the 20 questions game !
...We know that Jared has a long road ahead of him and the Waters family has signed up to see him through and with your prayers we will see this happen! Thanks again for standing with us !

Isaiah 40:28..The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary and young men stumble and fall, but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

Praise God for little bits of good news. We are just hungry for any information, and we all so appreciate updating the way you do.
The Waters here in Kansas have signed up for the fight for Jared as well, not physically like you all, but mentally and prayerfully. We love you all so much, think of you so many times through the day and are praying for you constantly.
We are all so proud of how you are handling this, staying strong and hanging on to your faith.
We are with you all in love, thoughts and prayers.

To our amazing family: It is so nice to hear that strides are being made and that Jared's fighting spirit has not wavered. Christina, we are amazed at your strength through this extremely difficult time. I am constantly moved by the love that you ALL have shown for the Lord and each other. A rare and wonderful family we are apart of!! Know our thoughts our hearts and our prayers are with you at all times. This Psalm of David really spoke to my heart Psalm 61; 1-3
Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
Keep up the good fight and remember we are fighting and praying with you always. We love you all so much.--Misty & Bob

Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me; for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
Always remember the Lord is gracious and full of compasion!!!
Our hearts are with all of you!!!
