Steve has no damage to his arteries, which is great news since surgery in his condition would be dangerous. The plan now is to continue with the same treatment and stay optimistic that his brain will heal.
Yesterday we were watching him display symptoms that indicated he might die. We put it in Steve's hands...stay with us if you can, but we'll understand if you can't. Then, around 7pm, there was a positive sign that repeated itself every hour through the night when they checked his responses. We could hardly convince ourselves to be optimistic, but, as we mentioned earlier, the CT scan showed no further damage.
We want you to know how thankful we are for all of you and the prayers and positive thoughts that you are sending his way. I am convinced that he felt them and they helped give him strength to continue on. Please keep them coming! He needs you.
With thanks and love,
Linda

Thank you for these updates. I know that the folks at church have been reading and praying for Steve, and everyone. I told my Priest this morning that I have never prayer so hard and often in my life. I will continue to pray for Steve, the Percha's, and the Perkin's families. I am blessed to be a part of them.
Peace,

Steve,
I'll keep praying, you keep healing. We are thrilled to hear there isn't any damage to your arteries. Let's get you healed and back to all those who love you. I would like to know, once they allow you to wake up, if you are enjoying "Moby Dick" that Beth is reading you.
May God give all of you strength to get through what has been sent your way.

Dear Percha Family,
I went to high school with Steve, and just want to say how sorry I was to hear about Steve's accident. I will be thinking of him and pulling for him every day. My heart goes out to all of you!
I live in Washington, DC, and if there is anything that any of you need I would be more than happy to help.
