Friday, 11 p.m.

Mel seems to be resting better this evening. The doctor was in around 10:30 p.m. and was pleased with how things are progressing. Prayers are needed that there will be a bed available at Freedom Village so that he can be transferred there probably on Tuesday, January 2nd. Pray for strength for the entire family as they travel down this road. Mel's appetite is good and he is feeding himself. Thank you for all your prayers and continue to pray for him and the entire family. By the way January 2nd is Mel's birthday.
