First and foremost, thank you to everyone for your prayers. Gabe is stable and on his road to recovery. God listens and there is no doubt that your praying is helping my little miracle boy.

Gabe's status: Our little fighter is doing well. We had a big scare last night. There was a very large amount of blood draining from his chest tubes. They tried suctioning out the excess blood, but it did not stop. They had to reopen his insicion and find the source of the bleeding. They did find it and managed to stop it but he lost a significant amount of blood. Once they stopped the bleed, they gave him a transfusion and he looks a lot better this morning.

This morning he is doing good. They have his pain under control and are currently trying to lower the amount of morphine so that they can wean him from the ventilator. He should be ventilator free by late morning. His chest tubes are draining well and hopefully will be out by tomorrow at the latest. He wakes from time to time and can hear our voices. He is so strong! Superman-is what my sister, Christina calls him!

I will continue to update you with his progress. Thank you again for the prayers!
