Thank you so much to everyone for supporting us in our time of bereavement. The outpouring of love and support has been overwhelming. Thank you for crying with us and rejoicing with us over Stephen's short but full life. We knew Stephen was loved by many, but had no idea just how many. We have heard so many stories of things that Stephen has done that we didn't know about. We estimated there could have been as many as 800 - 1,000 people that attended Stephen's memorial service on Sunday, February 8th, to celebrate his life. What a testimony to such a young man and how he lived his life. The service was just incredible. We were amazed at how God moved and everything just flowed as our family, church, and friends sang, played, spoke, and preached about Stephen's life. We did get an audio of the service thanks to our excellent sound technician and we plan on making this available hopefully on the blog so those that weren't able to attend can hear the message, the stories, the poems, and the songs that we cried tears of joy over while hearing. You may also want to share this as a source of inspiratin to someone who needs to hear this message at a challenging time in their life.

We will continue to post to this site. We plan on adding more pictures and we will post when we add them. We will tell about the various memorials that are planned in honor of Stephen. We also are going to start a foundation in time called the I Love Stephen Moore Foundation. We will use the blog site until we have our own website.

Thank you again to everyone and we love you,

Jeff, Myra, and Philip

9:30AM - Stephen's oxygen levels went up last night after falling dramatically yesterday. It was above 90 but has fallen back to 84 right now. The family was called in last night but they were able to go home. We are just standing together with family and friends in the peace of God. - Jeff and Myra

8:00 PM - Stephen is not doing very well tonight. His lungs are filling up with fluid and mucous. His oxygen level has been down to 79% - 84%. Many family members are here. Some of us have spent time with Stephen laying with him in the bed and talking to him as well as loving on him. He is still heavily sedated and they are keeping him as comfortable as possible. - Jeff and Myra

11:45 Pm - Stephen had a hard day today, but he is resting better right now. He had a fever earlier today, but it is okay right now. He is on a low dosage of insulin but his blood sugar is looking better. We are waiting on results of other blood numbers. He is also on diflucan which is a fungal type medicine that is common in patients on a ventilator. Stephen has to be turned every several hours and this is difficult for him as he has had mucous in his lungs and sinuses. His breathing has been very labored throughout the day during these times. They are having to turn the ventilator up to compensate for this. His blood pressure and pulse are staying stable. The doctors and nurses are trying to keep Stephen as comfortable as possible. Please pray that the Lord guides all of us and gives us wisdom in all decisions for Stephen. - Jeff

11:45 PM - Stephen has continued to run a fever throughout the day. It is 101.8 right now. They are giving him Motrin and Tylenol. They are still using a cooling blanket on him to keep his temperature down. He has had difficulty the past several times they have turned him and it has caused labored breathing and they have had to turn his oxygen up. His blood pressure is still holding steady. He had several more visitors today. We appreciate all the support from everyone. - Jeff and Myra
