Encouragement

I spoke to the ICU nurse a few minutes ago and Dave was out of surgery. The doctor is said to be "Encouraged" by what he saw during surgery. They will be operating again on Wednesday and if the healing process is going well, Dave will be extubated (have his breathing tube removed) sometime this week.

I am so grateful for this news. Grateful especially for the intervention of our Father in Heaven and for all of the prayers on Dave's behalf. Please keep those prayers coming as Dave will have a long road to travel towards complete recovery. I know that he's going to pull through this!

For the time being, I will be updating this blog every time I have news. This can be several times per day.

On a sadder note, I just returned from a memorial service for a young boy of 8 who very suddenly passed away two Sundays ago. His parents are devastated. Please pray for the Roach / Wallis / Johnstone families during this terribly tragic time. They desperately need the comfort of our Father.
