It's been one week . . . .







Well I can't believe it has been one week from today that Dad had his accident. We have been camping out at the hospital and so many friends and family have came along side and comforted us. We are so thankful for your care for us. Thank you to everyone who is continueing to pray for Dad and our family.



Well yesterday we had a rough day. Dad had a major seizure that lasted 30 minutes. A typical seizure would last 30 seconds to 3 minutes. It was a horrible thing to see him go through. They got the seizure stopped but had to more than double the seizure medicine he was on. He is in a deep coma now. He is not responsive at all even when they do their "vacation" from the medicine to evaluate him. He has spiked a temp today of 101.8 so they are trying to get that down. We are not suppose to touch him or talk to him because they do not want any stimulation to his brain at all for awhile. The doctor said that if Dad doesn't have anymore seizures they may try to wake him up come the first of the week. The swelling on his brain is still a concern as well. Dad is very swollen today from all the fluids.



We thank God for his care for Dad and for us. We know that God is using this for His Glory! We may not understand it all but we trust Christ! Continue to pray with us and we love everyone of you!
