I just found out today that Jimmy has made amazing improvement in the last twenty-four hours! Can anybody spell m-i-r-a-c-l-e? They didn't think he'd be alive through the weekend, but now they're scheduling him for rehab starting on Monday!

He still needs to have a lung-transplant because of all the damage that's been done, and they've put him on the transplant list. But there is no immediate or looming danger to him now. He is conscious and totally lucid. And he may be able to come home within a week or two.

I want all of you to know that I truly believe each and every prayer and hope you gave played a part in this, no matter how big or small. And I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
