I know I should be blogging news and stuff, but I do want to report on this.
I finally heard from the doctor this afternoon; and, against expectation, my aunt seems to be getting better. She’s still breathing on her own, and various medications are kicking in. I plan to visit her tomorrow, now that she won’t have assorted doctors working on her. She hasn’t had to be placed in the Intensive Care Unit, either.
I thank you all for your prayers on her behalf. Please keep ’em coming.
Folks, please pray that Laura will either be able to keep her job or quickly find a new one just as good.
As a new feature of this blog, I’ll be taking your prayer requests whenever you feel the need to send one in. I read all reader comments, so wherever you post it, I’ll find it.
Psalm 46: “God is our refuge and strength…” Be thou our strength today, O Lord.
I must thank you all for your prayers.
As of this morning Aunt Joan is still breathing on her own, which I don’t think the doctor expected, and it remains to be seen whether she’ll respond to the medications. There is no healing that doesn’t come from God. As one of you wisely pointed out last night, she will live not one minute less, nor one minute more, than God has appointed to her.
In the meantime, life goes on, my work goes on: in fact, under the circumstances, it’s rather a relief to work, and I thank God for it.
So, everybody, thanks again for your prayers–and from now on, please, please feel free to make prayer requests here on this blog. I see all my comments, so if you send one, I won’t miss it. And I’ll post it.
