Greg is still heavily sedated but that is also being weaned. All his vital signs still look good and he remains in stable condition. Please continue to keep Greg in your prayers as I know you have been and as you guys know, they are deeply appreciated.

God bless you all, Nora

A HUGE thank you too to Aaron and to all of you for your generosity to have a fundraiser for Greg. When he is able to he will be so overwhelmed at all the kindness and love extended to him. He will be very appreciative, I know. Thank you so much for doing that for him. I personally have been overwhelmed at all the responses, concern and prayers that come from PR. I know I sound like a broken record, but I must echo these words again, [I]good begets good and it is my prayer that the good that has been given comes back to all of you in a special way.
Thanks to you too for being there for him and for keeping us updated. I only wish I was closer so I could help out more. The real thanks for the fundraiser goes to the members here who have been very supportive, especially given these difficult financial time. Don't forget to take and post the pic of Greg's room once you 2 get it decorated!!! :thumbsup:
