Quick- update

Dear Friends and Family,
>
> Thank you once again for standing with us these past weeks. We deeply
> appreciate your prayers as you travel with us along this emotional roller
> coaster of our son's "ups and downs".
>
>
>He had a few really good days at the beginning of the week. Yesterday
> we were about to take him on a two hour pass to get out of the hospital
for
> a bit in his wheelchair (he is not standing or walking yet, but can sit up
> unsupported for short periods of time) when his internal bleeding started
> again.
>
> He received two units of blood, platlets, and clotting factors to try and
> help stop the bleeding. The doctors suggested we call in our family in
case
> they could not get the bleeding stopped. Last night was a long, hard,
night.
> Our immediate family and our pastor along with a few close friends
gathered
> around to pray for Graedon.
>
> He underwent a three hour test similar to a CT scan where doctors
irradiated
> some of his blood with a special dye and then reinjected it to try and
> locate the site of his bleeding.
>
> The test showed that there is a site in his small intestine close to his
> stomach which is bleeding. The severity of the bleeding slowed over night
> and we are now waiting to find out what the next course of action will be.
>
> Their is a possibility of a surgical procedure although doctors do not
know
> how he will be able to handle that given his weakened condition.
>
> We were uncertain whether he would make it through the night and he
remains
> near the brink once again.
>
> Our family appreciates everyone praying for him during these trying
> times.
