Okay, finally an update. Dylan's surgery has been postponed until tomorrow sometime between 8 and 10. At that time, they will do skin graphs on his hand (the knuckles) and try again to repair the pinky finger. If they are unsuccessful on the finger, they will go ahead and take it then. They haven't determined yet whether or not he'll need skin graphs on his stomach. He is still on a lot of medication and receiving help breathing but they are hoping by tomorrow night they can take him off the breathing machine. They've told her he'll probably be there another 7 days. Brandon's dad and my sister are at the hospital with Dylan now and and Emily and Brandon are on their way home to try and get some rest. Please try not to call their home or cell phone for the next few hours so they aren't awakened by the phone ringing. I'll let you know how the little guy is doing tonight and of course keep you updated on his progress after the surgery tomorrow.

We are so sorry to hear about Dylan. We just want Brandon and Emily to know our prayers are with them. It sounds like he is a fighter, and that he will have much help getting through this trial with many friends, family and angels that are with and praying for him. We love you guys! Aaron and Lynzi Hobbs(Brandon's cousin)
