Good Early Evening - Just wanted to let you all know that Bo is fairing well. I think the entire ICU is disappointed that we are back there again, but we all are willing to do whatever for a long life out of ICU. Bo is frustrated today, but was alert and trying to figure out the best way home. We got a treat and got one of our favorite nurses, Jason today. He always makes sure to treat Bo like a person and not a patient. That is treatment that you cannot put a price on.
Bo will go back on the vent at night for a while to build his lung strength back up and we will wait to move to the 7th floor. I found out today that this might take a week or so because there is a limit to the rooms that allow vents. Until then we will do our thing and just try to get out of the hospital all together.
Love to All
Christi, Addi and Bo
PS - A big thank you to Rachel, Savannah, Byers and Justin for coming up to play and distract Addi. Thanks she had a great time and slept well.

Dear Bo, Christi and Addi,
My heart goes out to you. A few steps forward and a few steps back is very normal - but very frustrating. A nurse told my dad that frustration is good. It makes you work harder to get better. We will continue to do our part by lifting you all up in prayer. We know God can work miracles. We just have to be patient and trust that His way is best.
Give Addi a hug for me.
Love, Miss Kim
Thinking about you all and keeping you in our prayers.
Of course Addi knows how to make Daddy better! That is just precious.
Take care, Kristen
Easy to say, hard to remember but God does not give us anything we can't handle. Hang tough guys

Hey Guys,
Prayers coming your way! Buddy hang in there! Samuel Johnson once said, "Whatever enlarges hope will also exalt courage". You are definitely my hero and there are so many people's lives you have touched with your strength through all this. God Bless You! Leigh Ann
Christi and Bo,
Stay strong and keep those positive thoughts. Hang on to each other and keep encouraging each other. These baby steps will add up to larger steps which will lead you home.
We love you and send you love, prayers, hugs, and laughter.
Love,
Aunt Mary and Uncle Jeff
This so terribly frustrating for you and BO. The doctors know best- it is a process and a painful one at that. There are thousands of continued prayers being said for you. We all love you.

I'm still thinking of you all every day, checking the postings daily and saying a prayer (at least one a day) for all three of you. You're on my mind and in my heart.
