April 30

Today was a tough day for Lane. He is battling a fever so he was covered in ice packs most of the day and was having some labored breathing. We did our best to support him and by the end of the day he seemed to be a little bit better. He is really looking forward to getting home but wants to bring his favorite nurse. It looks like we will not be flying back until the end of the week/weekend as coordinating stretcher flights seems to be quite the ordeal. Lanes medical team flys out here in a few days to do the meet and greet and prep Lane for the flight home.

I shared with Lane some of the pictures from the BBQ. He was blown away by the turn out, shirts, Giants colors, and of course his healthy Trapper.

Thank you to everyone that came out and supported the event- it means a lot. It is usually a funeral when you find out who your friends are so it was great to see so many family and friends there. If I could hug you all through this email I would.
