Update on Stan - Sept. 27

Stan is off of the ventilator and is talking. He does not remember his little episode of the last 10 days. He is improving and already asking to go home. There is a lot of healing of the bones and his left lung, and his wound needs a skin graft. His pain is pretty excrutiating, but he is a strong man. He still has a ways to go, but this is a good starting point. It is just a blessing to see him interact again. We have had a good Saturday. Thanks to all of you for your concern, prayers and thoughtfulness.

Jenny and Stan Bippus
