Wednesday
10:00am There is so much to be thankful for.
Bryan had a good night last night. He was able to rest. His blood pressure remained steady (around 114). He passes his hourly neurology tests with flying colors. His attitude is his usual positive self. This is an outward sign of his deep and steady walk with his Lord.
Becky’s parents, Bob and Marsha Callero, arrived from southern PA last night adding another pillar of strength for Bryan and Becky. They also brought a care package from Becky’s sister, Sarah. It included a beautiful pair of fuzzy pink slippers to comfort Becky’s swelling feet.
This blog sight which is allowing hundreds of Bryan’s family and friends too stay posted and to know what to specifically pray for. Bryan feels bathed in the prayers of the saints across the country and literally around the world.
Another thing to be thankful for is that Joe continues to commute back and forth managing the two Kaye households, the dogs, the laundry, the mail, etc, etc.
And yesterday, Merrie and Joe’s good friend Betsy (The ICU nurse from Baystate who helped coordinate Bryan’s move to Boston) came in on her day off and brought in from the Faith Tabernacle family a huge bag of snacks, fruits, sweets, and a case of bottled water. THANK YOU – THANK YOU- THANK YOU!!! Betsy remains a tremendous support to the family in this difficult time.
Merrie and Becky were able to get some good sleep; snuggled in the comfortable beds at the DoubleTree knowing they are literally 5 minutes from Bryan’s bedside should they receive an emergency call. The ICU staff welcomes Becky’s check-in calls during the night.
Bryan Status:
Yesterday (Tuesday) was a “watching day”. Today is going to be a “waiting day”. Waiting for Bryan to go down for his next Angiogram and procedure. Waiting for the results of the test which will determine exactly what the procedure will be. Waiting for the procedure to be over. Waiting for Bryan to come out of anesthesia. Waiting to see if the procedure caused any deficits or disturbances or side effects. Waiting for his body to stabilize. Waiting for his blood pressure to stabilize. Waiting for the nausea to be controlled (both the anesthesia and the “glue” they are using to seal off the veins cause nausea). Waiting for Bryan to feel comfortable.
The test and the procedure will take about 6-7 hours and we will post the time that it will happen when we hear. It blesses the family beyond words to know how much they are loved and cared for by so many concerned saints.
We all know Bryan has a network of friends but never knew the magnitude of his connections. But then again we know Bryan….

Brian, Becky, Joe, Merrie, and Jenny, You are in our prayers. The girls are praying for you too. If you should need someone comfortable to stop and feed the dogs some evening, I am more than happy to run over for you. Love you guys! Love, Martylee
Brian and Family, We will be praying for you especially at family devotion time. Remember, God only allows what He knows you can handle. He must think you are a very strong family. May you draw closer to Him and each other during this time. With Love and Prayers, The Lavoie's
Jenny,
Please relay a message to Bryan and Becky that all of his co-workers as well as Board members hold him in their thoughts and prayers. Get well! Barry
Brian has such a wonderful spirit and I have faith that he will pull through this. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family during this difficult time.
