Can we ask you to pray for us right now?
This was the last week of public school and our boys are glad to be free for another summer. On their last day, Dezi took them to Long Branch lake to the beach for a surprise along with Sandy Fincher and her children. It was a beautiful sunny day and one of our sons neglected to get sunscreen on. So, Thursday evening, Talon started itching really bad and had what is called sun poisoning. He was literally screaming at the pain and since I have had it a few times, we were trying everything we could think of to help. We called the emergency room and got advice and finally at about 2am he calmed down enough to fall asleep.

One hour later, we received a phone call from the assisted living home where my folks are living in an independent cottage. My father was having a heart attack. I rushed over in time to meet the ambulance and he was taken to Moberly Regional. There they decided quickly to transfer him to Boone County Hospital in Columbia. He had a 100% blocked artery and after angioplasty and a stent, has stabilized and resting comfortably in ICU. He will be there through Monday probably. It was apparent another artery is almost blocked so he will be having another stent put in at a later date. All three brothers made it to the hospital to be with him in the morning and pray for him.

After one hour's sleep that evening, I finally made it home in time to greet Dezi's sister and her husband who are visiting for the weekend. We were talking about Raena so I checked email to see if they had gotten the final paperwork yet and there was an email saying that Raena had two more seizures and had stopped breathing and was again in the hospital. We called to get the latest and she has stablized and more tests are being done. We are torn with our desire to have her here and to go be with her.
Can we ask you to praise God right now?
Talon is feeling much better.
Dad is stabilized and in no pain.
Raena is being treated and is doing fine now.
God is giving us the strength and patience we need as we go through trials like these.
