Update on Jeremy

Below is the latest update on my teammate Jeremy's condition. Thank you all for your prayers thus far--and please continue to Lift Him Up--He needs Strength and Patience and lots of Healing in the midst of his terrible ordeal. I love you all.

Jeremy is in considerable pain and has a broken shoulder among many other injuries. He is being incredibly positive and faithful. His blood pressure is good; blood-oxygen content is also good. He still needs the oxygen, but not the respirator. Right now the doctors are watching his breathing consistency (how many times he breathes in a minute). In a previous update we mentioned that his breathing was very quick and shallow. Now he is gauging seventeen to thirty breaths per minute with an average of 25--so his breathing is gradually improving. The plan right now is to move him to a larger hospital on Monday afternoon.
Your prayers have truly gone up and been well received--let's all keep on our knees.

Wow! I just read the post about Jeremy. When he heals he is going to have an amazing testimony to share.
