    he actually breathed on his on today and moved his hand and even opened his eyes twice! Please keep praying!!!

    Yesterday was a good day. He was doing a lot better. They have started to allow him to wake up and he is moving his left arm (no movement on his right side yet) and he even opened one eye when someone was joking with him and told him he was ugly.
    This Man was on his death bed Wednesday Night and Thursday the Doctors told his Family they needed to make a decision that he was brain dead but if they wanted to leave him on life support any longer he needed to have a surgery due to swelling in his abdomen but they didnt think he would make it through the surgery. His Family agreed to have the surgery and when they got to go back and see him he was doing better. He was put on a smaller ventilater and the swelling in his entire body was going down. He is no where near being out of the woods but ANY improvement is GREAT NEWS.
    With God's Grace and the support of his Family and Family of Firefighters he is haning in there.
    SO PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR HIM HE NEEDS US TO HELP HIM FIGHT THIS BATTLE WITH OUR PRAYERS! GOD IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS COMPLETE CONTROL OVER THIS SITUATION AND GOD IS THE ONE THAT HAS THE FINAL SAY IN HOW THIS ENDS!
    PRAISE GOD FOR ALLOWING THE FAMILY ONE MORE DAY WITH HIM AND MAY HE GRANT THEM MANY MANY MANY MORE!

    Cap:
    No need to apologize.
    I can't even fathom losing one firefighter; let alone nine.
    The floor is always your's.
    You got something to say, it would be my privilege to listen.
    Get well, stay well and stay safe.

    George, sorry to hear about the loss of Bro Campbell. For the family's sake I hope the DOJ approves it as a LODD. Get that motorcycle tuned up, filled up and come on back up here and hang out
