Challenging Event

Funny how my last post was on challenging events that can take over your life. I don't have a lot of time to say what I'd really like to say because my vacation has made quite the detour. My big brother is in the hospital in critical condition. He has an infection that has caused sepsis. Last night he was touch and go and was only given a 50/50 chance of making it through the night...but he did, bless his heart. While he is still in very critical condition, the doctor said that she felt the prognosis was better today. We know the Lord is at work here as we have felt his presence many times throughout this ordeal. We believe in miracles and are fasting and praying that his life will be spared. Please think of us and pray for us at this time.

Mindy,
I am so sorry that you are having to watch your brother go through this. This will be one of the hardest fights of his life, and I am sure that he has had many.

I know how much you love your family, you drive many hours almost every year to stay close to them.

I know that this comes on the fifth anniversery of your Mothers death, how much louder does your Mother need to speak.

The Lord loves you and your family, I know he is there with you all, and your faith will see you through this difficult time. Your love is abundant and will be felt by Roger.

You are in our thoughts and our prayers. You are not alone.

Love,
Sherrelyn and Family

I didn't read blogs for a week because my computer crashed. I'm sorry your brother got so sick, and I'm sorry I didn't know about it sooner. (((HUGS)))
