10:15am Things are about the same with Kevin. He is very, very fidgety. This is typical at this stage of the game. They cannot allow him up without the help of the physical therapist and the PT sees him once a day. He will be taken out of ICU very soon, but will still need to be in the hospital. This is called step-down. If he is only going to be in the hospital for less than a week before going to rehab, he will stay in Riverside where he is now. If he needs to remain in the hospital longer than a week they would like to move Kevin to St. Jude's in Fullerton. The Hollar family is very familiar with St. Jude's and they know he would get excellent care there.

The Hollars would like you to pray for wisdom as to where to have Kevin go for his rehabilitation. They are being told that a facility in Bakersfield is the best place for Kevin, but Bakersfield is two hours away. They would like to be able to be with Kevin as much as possible during his rehabilitation. They will be asking if it would be better for Kevin in the long run, to be at a facility that might not be as "good" as the one in Bakersfield, but is closer so the family can be there as much as possible. Please specifically pray that the Lord will give them clear direction and make it very obvious to them as to where Kevin should go for rehabilitation as it will be extensive. Karin
