Hello friends,
Tanya is in Richmond for the weekend and she told me tonight that her father's condition is still very serious. He is still on the ventilator, though he's been weaned off the sedating drugs. Hopefully it's taking time for those to clear his system as he has yet to respond to commands. They meet with the physician tomorrow to hopefully learn what happened Sunday night/Monday morning and whether he suffered a stroke or some other event that set him back. It may be that he's simply taking a long time to rebound; he wasn't really all that strong when we left him Sunday, though we were quite encouraged at that point that he might be turning a corner.
As you can imagine, Tanya and her family are anxious and weary. Psalm 34:18 informs us that "The Lord is near to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit". May they, and all who are ill, grieving, worried and exhausted find strength and comfort for a very challenging time.
Thanks for your prayers,
E.W./Scott Paulette
Feel free to share this with others as you are so led.
