Update 8 - Don's Journey to Hell and Back

To everyone following Don Harkins journey to recovery, I simply cannot tell you how much your love, compassion and prayers of support for his journey back to life has been for both of us. The main reason I couldn't maintain the updates was the fact that I really needed to stay focused on the task at hand - removing Don from the clutches of the Devil himself. There is also much more to this drama since in the process of saving his life, he literally should have been dead.

Update 4

Hello Friends, Family and "Fans",

I am still processing all the stress from yesterday. Many very critical decisions must be made now and Don is still very, very sick. Thankfully,
he slept horizontally last night at my insistence, and he slept fairly well from what the ICU nurse told me at 4 AM. I, on the other hand,
tossed and turned most of the night between prayer and developing a plan of action. Don is able to drink water now and he is drinking a lot -

Update 3

Rough day at the hospital but several positive results occurred.

1. Don was taken off life support today and is breathing on his own.
2. We finally straightened out the run around we were given by medical records staff. We are now given daily what we have asked for all along - a copy of his lab reports and a copy of all the meds he is on DAILY.
