Day + 5

The family's are looking forward to a quiet weekend before a pretty busy week ahead.
Today the family met with 2 of the fire fighters who were first responders to the plane crash. The fire fighters expressed how they were impacted by the Crane family already and that their entire organization is praying for their fast and complete recovery.

CURRENT INFORMATION

Greg: Since Greg has been awake the most, he's had the most work done. His surgery included having his tibia and shoulder re-set and having pins and rods put in place to help stabilize the bones permanently.

Summer: Summers condition remains the same, please see previous posts for most up to date information.

Tia: Something that was missed in the previous posts is that Tia suffered some chemical burns to her skin. I don't have the details on the percentage of coverage or the severity, however, they are watching that closely and if the need arises, she will be cared for in the burn unit for a time.

Austin: At last Austin's body is at rest. The Life Sharing organization was able to take 7 life saving organs from Austin. Tonight, the families of seven children across the country know that their child will live because of Austin. Thank God for this gift of beauty amidst the ashes!
