Hey Everyone! This is Lincoln Michael Carter's blog site. We are excited to be able to keep eveyone who is supporting him up to date with his current situation and with pictures. We covet all of your prayers as Lincoln is healing from his heart transplant!
Thursday, June 22, 2006
Well, Lincoln had another great day yesterday as you can probably tell by the pics! They were able to get him completely off of another heart medication called Dopamine and off 1 of his 3 pain medications. He still has a ways to go, it's a sloooooow process. They do not want to rush anything! Now that he is feeling better he is actually being a little feisty with his nurses. He is letting them know that he doesn't like to be touched so much now that he is more alert. He actually kept his eyes open for about 30 min as Kristen and I laughed and played with him. We think he has blue eyes! The plan for today still remains the same...keep comfortable, keep peeing!, and slowly wean medication and ventilator setting. Thank you all for your steadfast prayers and support...we love you all! J&K

Hi Guys,
Wow! Lincoln looks fabulous! When the pictures popped up, Ethan's first comment was..."Lincoln's awake now?" He still prays twice a day for his buddy!
What a special posting today! I welled up with tears as I read your note! Happy to see smiles on your faces!
With all my love,
Danielle for Da Bohr's

Josh and Kristen,
What can I say!!!!!!!!!!!! You've got such a BEAUTIFUL boy!!!! He looks soooo good and it is wonderful to see his eyes so alert. It did my heart good to hear you say you both laughed and played with him for 30 minutes yesterday. What a gift from God! I will now pray, too, that he will get used to his nurses buggin' him. Keep your eyes focused on our gracious and merciful Lord.
I am so thankful to Him!!
Love you guys,
Linda and George

Josh and Kristen,
What a precious gift! He is so beautiful and looking more alert. So glad you were able to have some quality time with him - you all need this!
Just wanted to let you know there are a lot of us here at Combie that have you all in our prayers daily.

All Smiles Here!!!! If you look at the top picture on your June 19th post, and compare it to today’s pictures, he looks a thousand times more healthy. He is really getting cute. Its good to see everyone smiling. I’m sure Lincoln would be smiling if he didn’t have that darn tube in his mouth. Well, we’ll pray that each day continues to bring more health for him.
I can’t wait until you all get transported back to Fresno, hoping soon!!! Take care, thanks for the update, it made our day….The Doswalds
Hi Josh and Kristen: Like everyone else we too are so excited to see your great pictures today and to hear of little Lincoln's big babysteps forward. "Praise Him, Praise Him All ye little children!!!" Please give him a kiss for us and we will keep praying, praying, praying. We love you guys. Josh: give your mother a hug for me and ask her if she needs any tictacs?!!!XXOOPatsy
What a wonderful sight! Little Lincoln has his eyes wide open telling the world "Here I am!" What a gift he is as are you both. We will keep praying for him as his days increase; we will pray for you both for continued strength for the long haul ahead. We look forward to more "Lincoln Blogs" that come daily to remind us of God's great power to change our lives with the sending on an other angel to earth! Chaplains Ed & Jackie Linn
Kris & Josh,
He looks so good!! Josh & I were so excited to see him with his eyes wide open, and to think of you interacting with him. I too got teary eyed just thinking how good God is, and how much He has done for Lincoln so far. I don't know how people can handle things without God. I'm so glad we have Him to trust in. Keep resting in Him. I'm sure you have all been quite a testimony to the nurses and doctors around you. We continue to pray for all of you! God is good.
Love, Chris & Josh
