Read More...I had a message from Kathy today. Pete has not improved. He was moved from ICU to the skilled-care section on the 7th floor of the hospital. He is still on a ventilator. His blood sugar is very high, and he is on insulin now too. His heart rate is very erratic, and he is on new medication for it. Nothing seems to be any better in any way. Continue to keep Pete and Neva in your prayers.

Read More...I just talked with Neva Leota; she said that Pete is still in ICU and has not really improved at all. They are not keeping him totally paralyzed now, but he is still sedated and is not aware of his situation. Neva is staying at the hospital during the day in case he wakes up and wants to talk with her. She has not talked with him since July 5. She just goes into the ICU at the regular visiting times. Do continue to keep Pete and Neva in your prayers.

Read More...I just talked with Neva, and she was at the hospital and on the way to see Pete in ICU. He is still being kept in the induced coma, and every time he starts waking up, they put him back under. There has been some improvement, but the doctor has told Neva not to get any false hopes. He was originally on five antibiotics; that has been reduced, and the amount of oxygen has been decreased some also. He remains critically ill. Continue to keep Pete and Neva on your prayer list.

They are keeping daddy in a chemically induced coma. They inserted a feeding tube today. The doctor said the next 48 hours are very crucial on whether daddy will recover or not. There is a lot of damage to his heart and lungs. Mother is doing what has to be done and holding up like the trooper she is. Michele is coming in tomorrow from Arkansas. Mother and Daddy's address is 1412 University Avenue, Monroe, LA 71203. Thank you all for your prayers.

Pete was diagnosed a couple of months ago with pulmonary fibrosis, and he has serious heart problems. Keep Pete, Neva, and their family in your prayers.
