Blood Drive - Saturday, January 10th at First Pentecostal Church

There will be a Blood Drive at First Pentecostal Church in Jackson, MS on Saturday, January 10th from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m.

In order to reduce wait times, you can schedule an appointment to give by calling Kerri Watkins at 601-720-7074 or emailing kpwatkinscpa@yahoo.com. If you email, if possible, give a window of time just in case the exact time that you want is not available. Appointments will be scheduled every 15 minutes.

Update on Jaime

As we posted in previous blogs, the doctors told us that the road to Jaime's recovery would be similar to a roller coaster ride. Jaime had several really good days, but today seems to be one of the low days on his journey to recovery. He has an infection, as the doctor warned would happen. He is also requiring more ventilator support than he has in previous days.

The family asks that you continue to pray for Jaime and for the family's peace and comfort. These prayers are what sustains and encourages them.

Please remember to post comments, as the family looks forward to reading them each night.

Blood Drive for Jaime

We have received lots of interest about giving blood for Jaime. We appreciate your willingness to donate as your blood will definitely be needed. We are in the process of organizing a large scale blood drive for Jaime. Please wait until we have this drive established properly, otherwise the blood will not be able to be used for Jaime or for the Augusta burn center. Continue to check the blog for more information.

3rd Surgery

Jaime's 3rd surgery was completed with no complications. Jaime has now been reduced to 50% oxygen on his ventilator. We know this is a result of your prayers. Jaime's most serious risk now is infection from the surgeries. He is not able to fight off infection as per normal. We ask that you pray specifically to help him fight off infection.

The Moser family checks Jaime's blog several times each day. It has been a source of comfort and encouragement for them. Thank you for all the kind words and prayers as Jaime and his family travel this long and difficult journey.

Blood Drive

We are organizing a blood drive for Jaime. The blood we get will be used for Jaime and also to replace the blood he has used. Keep checking the blog for more info.

2nd Surgery

Jaimes's second surgery has been completed. It was a success and there were no complications. Doctors will attempt a third surgery tomorrow on Jaime's back and other areas that were not able to be reached in the first two surgeries. The doctors have informed us that Jaime is improving but still remains on this up and down battle. We know that this improvement is not possible without your prayers and support. God is working miracles and will continue to do so. Please continue to keep Jaime and the Moser family in your prayers.

Another Good Night

Jaime has had another good night, with no complications. His physical appearance has improved. He is scheduled for another surgery today for his face and torso area. Please remember to have Jaime, Natalie and the Moser family in your prayers. Family and friends are beginning travels to and from Augusta, so also have them in your prayers for safe travels.

1st Surgery Completed

The 1st of a series of surgeries for Jaime was initiated at approx. 4:30 p.m. today. The surgery is now complete after 1.5 hrs . This particular surgery was involving damaged skin on both his hands and arms which were the most affected parts of Jaime's body. Additional procedures to be performed tomorrow will include his torso and face. He has had a good day!

We are trusting the outcome of today's surgery will be another victory report. Each and every day of improvement is a blessing to us. Thanks to each of you for remembering Jaime, Natalie, and the Moser family.
Jaime is having a good morning. The doctors have informed us that we are facing a roller coaster situation with ups and downs. Yesterday seemed to be a low day; however, today appears to be a high.

Chest x-rays revealed that the pneumonia has improved. There is a 75% chance that Jaime will have surgery (to remove damaged skin) today permitting his condition remains stable. This is a positive sign of progression for him.

Jaime's overall appearance is recovering each day. Currently, less precautionary measures (no dialysis, heart line monitor, etc.) are being required for his overall state.

We contine to request your prayers as Jaime and his family travel an unfamiliar territory. Strength and encourgement has been extended to us through your concern. We are thankful for a good day and believe for many more throughout Jaime's recovery.
