Dear Family and friends,

Dan and Candi wanted me to write a quick note to bring you up to date on Dan’s progress.

Thanks to so many of you for your continued prayers! Friday, May 4 Dan achieved an important milestone in his recovery; he was able to reach his first goal of 60 on the muscle count scale! Reaching 60 means more independence around the house (which I’m sure Candi is thankful for!). Dan also continues to work with Darrell on his walking and physical therapy everyday.

Please pray for Dan’s shoulder. As he gets more feeling back, he is also experiencing more pain in his shoulder. He’s going in for x-rays today to find out if his shoulder is broken.

Thank you for your persistent prayers!!
