Praise be to God

As of 4:30pm today, Papa is breathing on his own and off of the ventilator. He is talking a little, but his throat is very sore. They're going to try to start him back on some clear liquids tomorrow. I know he dreads the typical meal of jello, popsicles, and tea! But that's better than nothing. We are so thankful to God for allowing Papa to improve so quickly. There is nothing the doctors can find that caused this event and even less to answer why he is off the ventilator so soon. All we can say is God is so good!
My uncle has been admitted to the hospital for pneumonia. He will be on iv antibiotics for a few days probably. Please keep both of these men in your prayers.
