Dad~

Dad is back in the hospital~ it seems as if this is never-ending.....but! Thank God he has had all of his testing redone due to his doctor sending him to another hospital. First he was sent to a horrible rehab where my mother, my brother Phillip and Tom and I did not leave him but brought him home~ the next day he was sent to another rehab...this one was nice but dad was extremely ill so off to the hospital where he is now. Mom and I and Amanda are taking turns staying with him...mom during the day and Amanda and I in the evening until midnight when he gets his bedtime meds and we settle him in and pray and leave him until the next day. This has been a long hard road for my parents..my poor father has no strength and the dialysis is making him extremely fatigued and now he has a chronic bladder infection. I am praying for the Lords mercy and healing upon him....He needs a miracle! My mom needs her husband...we need our father still and my children need their grandfather!

Jeremiah 29:11
Tells us that :
I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are for good and not disaster to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you cry out to me I will listen.

I wrote this down on a piece of paper and put it up in my dads room before I left tonight~ I am believing this for my dad...We as a family are crying out~

This seems never-ending doesn't it? I read the pain and distress in your plea, and I also read your trust is in God. " Dear Heavenly Father, please give this family the comfort they are crying for and enable them to FEEL this comfort from you in the midst of their distress. Heal their father and surround them with encouraging people who love You! In Jesus Name,Amen

Dear Vikki,
I've been concerned for you and your family, since you haven't posted in awhile. I'm so sorry your dad and your family are going through this struggle.
I pray for healing and strength....God be with you...
