A new chapter

Uncle John is, in the words of one of his friends..."One tough dude'. I am so happy to let everyone know Uncle John is onto his next step in recovery. The plan is to transfer him to a rehab center in Virginia today. We need to pray that there are no complications, and he can safely continue on with his recovery. He is still on his ventliator, but the doctors are confident that he will be able to wean off of this over in rehab. There is a higher risk for infection if he stays in the hospital, so this is a positive step.

I am sure we can all agree that Uncle John has touched our lives since we first met him. However, he touched our lives yet again in a different light on February 4th, when he and his family's lives were changed forever. And he continues to amaze us as he fights to get well and surpasses all medical expectations every day. As family and friends, we need to continue to hold on to hope that he will fully recover. As Christians, we need to continually pray that God will help guide John in his recovery. We need to walk along side the Hannan family during this hard and long road ahead. He is getting better and stronger each day, but he is not completely healed. He has many battles ahead, but as I have said all along he is in good hands. Uncle John still very much needs are prayers, and the Hannan's need our support. Thank-you to everyone who has kept the family in your prayers, and I hope these updates will continue to bring good news as Uncle John enters a new chapter.
