This morning, around 9:00, we called the hospital for an update on Dad. His nurse through the night was still there and told us that he had been fairly alert for much of the morning. She said that she had noticed an improvement in the response of his right eye and that it had been tracking movement. In addition to that, his temperature had stabilized. These certainly are improvements over the last several days. However, we likely will not hear from the doctor (who is out of town for the weekend) until Monday when the next CT is scheduled.
When Vicky visited Dad around noon, he was more sleepy. When she asked if he'd like her to read his Bible to him, he unmistakably and firmly squeezed her hand. Now she and Mum are with him and Amy and I are about to join them.
We do want to take this opportunity to again thank you all for the things you've done: the cards and calls, the visits, the comments you've left on this blog, the errands that have been run, the meals you've picked up for us, and most of all, for the continued prayer. Thank you for continuing to hold Dad's hands up whilst he is unable. God bless you.

Just rejoicing with you.
ReplyDeletePraise the Lord! We thank Him for the report from the nurse concerning His right eye movement and awakeness. Also the response to Vicky to read the Word. We wait-with our faith banner held high-for our prayers to be answered. May the Lord bless each of you today with renewed strength. All our love and support!
