9/25 Update

We are no longer going home tomorrow. We just aren't ready and the doctor isn't pushing us. I know if we went home we would just end up right back here where we are in possibly worse condition. I said in the video we are sleeping a lot but we really are just napping here and there. They aren't good full nights rests or anything. It's really hard to get a good nights sleep in this place, but being on the bipap machine helps a little. Here is another video I made just giving a brief update. Thanks for all the prayers. -Katie

9/24 Update

Just a short video update. Sorry I haven't updated in a few weeks. We have both been really sick. Thanks for all the love and prayers. -Katie

Organ Donation

Dalton and I were married on July 16, 2011 and since then, we have spent so much time being sick, tired, and in the hospital that we haven't really had the chance to enjoy being married.
We have the best support system that I know and people are always asking what they can do for us. I finally know what everyone that wants to help can do.
First, we need prayers. A lot of them. If you don't believe in God, think positive thoughts, send good vibes, we will take anything!
The other thing you can do is go to www.organdonor.gov and sign up to be an organ donor. You can't take your lungs and other body parts with you, so why not give Dalton and I the chance at life?! I have attached a video to show how hard things can be sometimes. Although we are just laying there, breathing is so hard. It's crazy to have to think about breathing and have to concentrate on it instead of it coming naturally. Thank you for all of your support, love and prayers like always.

Prayers Please

I hardly directly ask for prayers for Dalton and I but this man is my whole world. He has my entire heart. Maybe this will give you a glimpse into our lives. Neither of us are breathing well or feeling good. We need a miracle so bad. Please keep praying... Please..
Also, if you could please share this, it would mean so much to us.. The more people that pray the better. I just keep trying to stay positive and keep trying to keep the mindset that God IS in control...
