Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall.
~Psalm 55:22 (NIV)~
Koltyn Gafford
Last Saturday morning
Just wanted to update all our Prayer Warriors. Koltyn is stable now. He has a slight temp. O2 has been dropped from 100% to 70% so he is breathing a lil on his own. A second chest x-ray was taken abt 3:30 this morning and they said it looks as though there is a very slight positive change but not much. We’ll take any kind of positive change!! He is resting much easier now. Thank you all for prayers. We are extremely blessed to have such an awesome community & social media family to think of us during such a difficult time. I’m just so ready to hear that sweet lil voice call out to me.
Late last night
Koltyn is continues to slowly improve. They are slowly weaning his ventilator. His blood pressure and pulse remain stable and has not required any increase in medications. He continues to run a low grade temp which is expected under these circumstances. His pupils react to light which is wonderful. He does have some spontaneous movements. We will update you all again in the morning after his doctor makes rounds. Again we appreciate your love, calls, and prayers. Your prayers are working! …the Gaffords, Russell’s and Newman family.
Kai Harris Relan was born Christmas Eve and has needed some special attention. His parents are Jordan and Mechelle Relan.
The baby spent Christmas in NICU at North Oaks. He has an infection and will spend about ten days in the hospital getting antibiotics. He has had a spinal tap to check on the infection possibly moving to the brain, but that was clear. Now, he has been moved to intermediate care. The parents thank those who have been praying. It looks like Kai doesn’t have any big problems.

Today, as I count my blessings for another year, I am blessed in many ways. One is extra special today! I’m so excited. The Hatchel family arrived mid afternoon yesterday and Boyd and Jennie will be speaking at FBC, K at 10:30 this morning. That makes me especially blessed today!
