Another Day of Hope and Encouragement

Today is Saturday,November 10, 2007, and we are so encouraged with news from nurses and from Caren today. They are beginning a slow process of decreasing the ventilator today, in the hope that Rick will be able to come off the ventilator some time this weekend. Please continue to pray that this process will go smoothly, that Rick will not experience any agitation or stress, that his lungs will continue to increase in function and he will finally be able to breathe on his own with oxygen, rather than the ventilator. We are thanking God for the expertise of the doctors and nurses as they work with Rick over the weekend to hopefully accomplish this.
Many thanks to each and every person lifting prayers for Rick and for the medical team working on him....we have seen miraculous changes in the last 3 days and we are thanking God for every one of them...It is a powerful thing to watch the "body of Christ" pull together in such times of desperation....thank you for your commitment from every member of our family!!!
