Kim is still in ICU but has been upgraded from critical to serious. He had a rapid spike in his blood pressure that caused a rupture in a blood vessel on the his right side of his head. He was transferred from the local hospital in WV where he lives to a large medical center in VA. They originally gave him 24 hours but all the prayers seem to be working, they are calling him their Christmas Miracle in the ICU unit. He can not have flowers or phone calls but please send cards. I will keep the list posted as we know more, keep up the prayers.
