Another Nite in the Master Suite

This is the chairs that pull out into a bed that dad slept on the first few nights. Basic Standard room.

Here is the upgraded master suite with two 5'6" couches that Dad's 6'3" frame fits so nicely on. Mom and Dad told me that they got a free massage yesterday and Dad might be joining the girls on spa day during Baseball Draft weekend. Mom loves the privacy as well as the public bathroom accomodations. I am going to have to hurry up and get better, because Mom says she is running out of Lysol disinfectant spray. I haven't had anymore arrythmia episodes. My lungs are a little wet slowing my oxygen exchange, so I will remain on a nasal canula for now. I need to eat more, so they won't have to give me a NG tube (feeding tube that goes up the nose and down to the stomach). Well we are all turning in for the night. I would like to thank everyone for comforting my Mom and Dad and keeping them occupied.

We are so glad to hear of all Madox's improvements today. Thank you for all the updates. I'm amazed how alert Madox looks in all his pics. What a trooper! Praying that Mom and Dad can get some sleep tonite in their "suite"! Hope the pumping is still going well for you Jen. Sending hugs to Grandpa/Grandma Patridge, Uncle Keith and family, Aunt Danielle and family, and Madox and family. All our love, Amy, Morrie, and boys

I'm pretty sure Kurt has slept in worse places! Isn't there someone out there with a Walgreens connection that can Fed-Ex some Purell and toilet covers? Sleep as well as can be. I hope Madox has good reports for all in the morning. Tell Cydne and Kaden to hang in there. We're all praying you can go home soon.

Madox
You really need to get better fast so mom and dad can upgrade to a better suite (their own bedroom). Kyle says "hi and eat lots". I guess he knows you are eating through a bottle now!! Hope to hear even better news in the morning. Sleep well and have a good night.

Hugs and Kisses from your favorite cousins in MO!!!!

Goodnight, sweetheart! You and your parents need to get some good rest! Especially after seeing their accommodations at Children's! You need to let your dad know that I would like to hear from him sometime! This blog is great, but I would really like to know how he and your mom are holding up! I know they are busy with you and needing a lot of rest! So, I do understand! You just keep getting stronger so they aren't so stressed. We love you, little guy!

Love, Aunt Lori, Uncle Matt, Brenna and Gavin

Good night little man!! I hope you keep an even rythm tonight and stop scarring your Mom. I cannot wait to see you Friday and hear all about your adventures. As for your Mom and Dad's sleeping arrangement, they survived nearly 2weeks along with your sister Cydne in a room about the size of those couches at our house. And if I'm not mistaken, I think you're the patient the nurses were talking about who's Dad slept through the earthquake. I'll bring more Lysol Friday for your Mom!! Take care and we will check in tomorrow. I love you!! Aunt Jennifer

P.S. Thanks to every blogger--your messages have meant so much to all of us. Keep it Up!

Thank you God for answered prayers!!! and continue to watch over Madox and family.

We love you,
To our 'littliest' buddy,

Good morning Madox. Aunt Penny has told us so much about you. We are all glad you are feeling better. You just keep eating. Before you know it you will be climbing trees with your big brother and playing football. I really enjoy your Blog page. You have a good day and tell mom and dad that our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Everyone at Horace Mann.

Good Morning Madox and Ratliff family,
I am pulling for you and you are certainly in my thoughts and prayers. A special thanks to Aaron Small as he made me aware of the current situation. I will continue to check this website for updates and wish you all of the best. For extra strength and encouragement go to Proverbs 3:5-6 I have no doubts that will help.
Take care and God Bless,

Chad Westbay
