Here is a copy of an email I received from Stephanie this morning.
Hey everybody. I'm sorry if I gave you the impression that Travis was doing great. He is still in ICU, with a ventalator (the tube that breaths for him), and is not awake. He wakes up every now and then, and can blink to us yes or no, but he can't move yet. He has been running fevers, but we've tried to keep them down. Today we had a big set back. He got a terrible infection in one of his wounds. It is very severe, and we will see what the next 12 hours brings. He is in surgery almost everyday getting his wounds cleaned out. He fractured his plevis, and the doc put two screws in it to keep it together. He won't be able to walk or at least 12 weeks. I don't mean this to be a depressing email. I know that all your prayers have been with us here, and are helping. There are some LDS docs here, and have given Trav blessings, which are the most comforting feeling in the world. Travis will get through this, but it will be a VERY long time for him to fully recover. Thank you so much for your love and support. I love you all.
