Hello friends. It is Sunday late afternoon and it has been a rough weekend. This is Connie, by the way. We just returned from the ER after about 36 hours of Phil being unable to keep anything down, including any of his meds. He was getting severely dehydrated and becoming more and more unable to do anything but sleep. After a few hours and two bags of fluids and anti-nausea meds, we are back home and his eyes are open!! He feels better than he did.....but now I'm trying to get him to eat a tiny bit. Pray he can do that soon.
This is hard. I guess we knew it would be. I hate seeing him sick and I am unable to do much about it.
But as usual, we are not alone. We know our Heavenly Father sees us and loves us. Then he prompts YOU to do something.....whether it is pray for us, be with us, bring us food, shovel or plow, send an encouraging message, take Tem and Tess, and on and on. It was so great to have my sis-in-law Myra with us in the ER since she has years of oncology experience and knows what to ask when I have no idea. We're thankful for the medical professionals who cared for Phil and did it so well.
I'm asking God for peace.....not to worry about things ahead of time. And that those two little crackers would be eaten soon and stay down.
Praying for those two crackers to stay down too.
ReplyDeleteLove you guys.

ReplyDeleteWe're sorry to hear. Praying for you guys!
ReplyDeleteI hate this for you guys... and it sounds sadly quite familiar. thankful for the ER and the Dr's (and sis-in-laws) there to help give relief and guidance when needed. praying that Phil is able to keep food down- and continue to keep food in.....and nausea far away. Jesus bring your comforting presence and reminders of Your faithfulness to our dear friends. Allow Phil's body- his mind and heart- to remain strong as he fights. Give Connie just what she needs when she needs it, Jesus.... in your mighty and healing name we pray..... in our thoughts often. we love you guys. mel and moose
