Sorry for no posting since Meg's last post on Saturday. I was visiting Mark on Sunday and he sure was tired. I'm sure that it was due to being so active on Saturday then to have the seizure medication on top of that.
I just spoke to Betty and here is the latest information. She told me that not much has changed. As for information on his seizure, they said that it was a small one and that there were no changes in his CT scan. They did start him on seizure medication for prevention.
Yesterday Mark sat up in bed with assistance for the 1st time. Mark keeps wanting to get up and walk. He is very weak and does not have much of an appetite. He is not eating much so Betty is really pushing nutrition to help build some strength.
Betty also told me that he has a small leak in his chest tube that they addressed today but they have made the mention that the chest tube and the trac would possibly be removed within a few days.
On a different note, Betty has mentioned to me on numerous occasions how blessed her family is to have a all the prayer warriors out there. The love and support that many of you have given to her family has been a true blessing. So to that, on Betty's behalf, I thank each of you for being beside her and her family through this.
Until I know more,

Karen,
Thanks for your help in keeping everyone up to date. Betty & the girls sure have enough on their plates. Have they moved Mark to a room yet? He is really doing so great. It may seem like things are going slow but from where he has come from is just unbleivable! God is so good and we all need to keep those prayers going.
Love to all,
Karen Bills, cousin
To answer Karen's question. The have not moved Mark to a different room. He is still in the intermediate care unit. Yes he really is doing good.
We hope that this blog has kept all informed. Please all that read this remember that Meg is making a scrap book so feel free to blog away on this because the blogs are going to be in the book as well. If you can not figure out how to blog, send an e-mail to me at kbradley@iterm.com and I'll help you out.
Love to all,
Karen, sister in law
