It’s only been a little bit since Matt posted, but as happens in these situations, we’ve just learned that Peter has a “big pneumonia”. His sats were dropping overnight and required them to increase his oxygen, which is the opposite of what they were hoping to do when we got over here. They did another chest x-ray this morning and are starting him on 3 antibiotics for coverage. They will also be drawing blood cultures soon. His breathing is clearly more labored today and he is sweating a lot; probably because he is working so hard. This is somewhat worrisome, although we hope it will resolve quickly. They hope to keep him from going back to PICU, and said there is an “immediate care” area here at MSKCC that we may move to, to make sure he stays stable. His sats are low and heartrate high so the nurse is on her way to turn up the oxygen again. Please pray that this will resolve quickly with the antibiotics and no major problems!
ps. Thank you for your interest in the t-shirts!
A journal of Peter’s journey
TY and Erika –
Prayers – hugs – and lots of hope coming your way
EIGNERS – we will continue to pray for Peter and your entire family!!
Colleen and your friends at the MMBA
Erika, Ty and of course Little Peter,
You all hang tough out there! He will sail through this little setback with all the strength and courage of the others, that smile will be back in no time.
Much Care,
Amy, Robert and Emerson Gordon
You ask for more prayers… you shall receive!
Seems like another zig-zag in the path to recovery… but I see smiles and thumbs-up in Peter’s near future! He’s a strong boy and although we wished for a straighter path for him to follow, I am certain he’ll find the finish line & remain victorious…..
Thinking of you, like always… and sending love, hugs, kisses and many prayers for healthy lungs!
Love~

We are aware of all that has happened in the last few minutes and want you to know that everyone here is thinking of you and praying for you to come out of this. I have never witnessed so much love for a person as I have with you, Peter, and that comes from the bottom of my heart.
You have generated more “love” in one year than most generate in a life time. I see the impact around this camp because of all that know you and it is enough to bring a person to their knees.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, your Mom and Dad and sisters; as well as your entire support system. Your situation makes most every problem seem very insignificant.

Dear Ty and Erika,
Please know how very much you are loved. We continue to pray for Peter tonight.
You are amazing parents, and Peter an amazing little boy. We anxiously await good news.
Love,
Kurt, Stephanie, Karlie & Teddy
Stay strong, many prayers are coming you way. These are the really tough times that we all will help you through. Prayers and much love are helping you and your parents. Keep fighting. God Bless, Cheryl Bailey
Erika, Ty and family
I was going to call but thought better of it after talking to Dino. Just want you to know that what ever could be said and felt is being sent your way through this email. You are both aware of all our feelings. The amount of love, emotions and feelings that have been generated through this past year cannot be measured, but it can, and should be, documented.
Knowing how much others care and understand your pain is as meaningful as any words we might get through over the phone.
Thoughts, prayers and love from all of us @ the camp.

Dear Erika and Ty:
I’ve just got word this morning of Peter’s weakened condition. You are the bravest people I know, and I pray, as do my parishes up here on the North Shore, for strength and courage for you, and for healing and a return to health for Peter.
God’s choicest blessings on youi all.
