I just wanted to let you know that we're now somewhat more optimistic
about Skylar's condition.  After an outside consultation with a doctor
in Huntington Beach, we believe that it's more likely that Skylar is
suffering from an infection and not an auto-immune response.  The
doctors should be able to attempt to treat an infection.

Tomorrow (Tuesday), Skylar will be placed on a ventilator and the
doctors will examine and culture his lungs so that they may determine
the actual cause of Skylar's congested lungs.

Thank you for your continued prayers, and please continue to pray.
