A Few Steps Back

Recovery is slowing and taking a few steps back. We're praying for answers, so appropriate help can be underway. This morning Dad couldn't go to the bathroom, he could barely walk, he felt short of breath, and the scale says he gained 20 pounds, which seems impossible after hardly eating hospital food. I'm wondering if he has fluid build up somewhere, which would account for the weight gain, weakness, and trouble breathing normally. Mom is tired and done. Really, they both just feel burried by days of the same story again and again. We need every prayer we can get at this point. Pray for answers, helpful treatment, encouragement, and for my daddy to get better. God is Good.

Milan and Kay,
We understand your issues with the hospital season. Were praying for your healthy full wonderful physical recovery, Milan. And were praying for Kay that the Lord's hand wraps around your heart and emotions through this time both for you and the family. More importantly, Jesus has prayed for you guys today (Heb 7:25) and His prayers are always answered.
Love your guys,
Mark & Janette

I've been bombarding God's throne with prayers, petitions, supplications & groans that only the Holy Spirit can translate to our Lord for you all! I went thru a simlilar season of heart repair with my dad before medicine was as advanced as today. God got us thru then (the results & extension/improvement of live was SO worth the difficulty) and He will you too! May God encourage you all in the way that only He can! Linda Cerro :o)

I am thinking of you all daily. I can't even imagine the drain of emotions. I love you and pray for all of you. Kelly, this site is wonderful. I know ongoing phone calls are draining and this helps so much to stay in touch with Milans progress. Love, Carol

We think of you and pray for you many times each day. Thank you so much Kelly for your updates. It's helped us to be able to make our prayers so specific for Milan, Kay and your family. We'll keep praying for the Lord's complete healing for Milan, as well as His love,comfort, peace, and perseverance for your entire family.
Blessings,
Janet and Paul
