Mom has been with Dad since this morning and is the greatest comfort.
Dad's appetite dropped off today as he only took small bites of each entr'ee.
He did eat a lot of the ice cream however.
Not a lot of change to report, everything is staying about where it was this morning.
His color is coming back and a few minutes ago the med team got him up and he is sitting in a chair for the first time. This aggravated his coughing which is good for him but it very painful. He is hugging his pillow as best he can.
He will still be in ICU tonight and probably tomorrow.
He is enjoying listening to your messages, emails, and cards.
Joyful joyful Lord we adore thee
God of glory Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before Thee...
God is good!

Jamie, Wanda and I are thrilled to read the encouraging reports! Rusty was kind enough to call on Wednesday, left a message, and we connected on Wednesday night. He gave me a thorough and helpful report, one permeated by love and concern for his dad. We have monitored the blogs and prayed faithfully for you and Beverly and all your family. We celebrate the good progress you are already experiencing and are grateful for the promise of additional healing, new strength and energy, and countless days with your family, fellow believers, and friends. Count on us to keep our prayer wheel a'turning in your behalf. Blessings. Larry
