Dwight said he got more sleep last nite and that is good! However, he said that his eyesight in one of his eyes was getting hazy yesterday (he didn't tell anyone yesterday) and now it has gone completely black. He mentioned it to the medical staff this morning and they are going to have an eye doctor see him either at the hospital or the rehab center (where he is supposed to be moved to today).
There have been so many positive and amazing steps forward and I pray that this is just a little bump on Dwight's road to recovery. Dwight said that his own doctor (Sid) told him that he might have a little problem with his eyesight. We think this might be from his diabetes more than anything else. His eating has been very sporadic since he came out of the coma. His weight was down to 201 pounds yesterday, some 30 pounds lighter than when he arrived. Dwight's body needs the food and natural sugars to heal and recover. He's been a little stubborn about not eating much. Please pray that his appetite increases and that he starts eating better. Pray, too, for his eyesight.
Prayer works. I know I believe. I ask that we all come back to God and ask for His continued mercy on Dwight and on each one of us. From the entire family, our heartfelt thanks for all of your prayers thus far and for those to come!
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. - 1 Peter 5:7
- Mark (banker son-in-law)

We will pray for the return of Dwight's eyesight and a better appetite. God has been listening to our prayers. We will also ask God to keep the family in His loving arms.
