7am update from Greg's mom

Good morning! Greg has gotten thru the night well. We were all allowed to see him at 4am and he was completely sedated but looked better than we anticipated. Elise and I then went back at 5 and he opened his eyes immediately when he heard her voice. Since then we have been in and out a couple times. They are being kind to us and allowing us to stay there and comfort him. They tried to wean him off the ventilator a little while ago but his blood gases weren't good enough. This is a really anxious uncomfortable time for him. His heart function numbers are looking really good! Please keep praying for peace and comfort for him and strength for us. We are pretty exhausted and want to help him through this. Thank you for your love and prayers!
