We woke up early this morning so we could make sure we didn't miss the doctor. We arrived at the hospital at 7:30 am and Steve is looking really good! The doctor arrived around 10 am and she is very pleased with his progress. All the blood work came back normal. Chest x-ray shows great improvement. He is off oxygen and he is retraining his lungs to work properly. He is now allowed to walk a little more and we have taken a few walks down the hall. They said that he could possibly walk outside today if he promised to always be with me and rest if he needs to. He may be discharged tomorrow, but they will see how his oxygen is throughout the day today and tomorrow morning. We pray that we will be updating that tomorrow. We praise God for HIS healing power!
Mandy Shaarda is traveling home today. It has been such a huge blessing to have her here with us. I am so thankful that God allowed her to be here and a part of this journey with us.
Our kids are doing fine. They have their moments and I am so thankful that Auntie Karebear is willing to love them for us. We know that it is not easy to take care of stressed, tired and out-of-routine kids. Our "team" in Soroti has been amazing! Taking care of meals and schedules and all the little details. I cannot express my gratitude enough that God has placed us in Soroti to work alongside these wonderful people.
We have really appreciated everyones prayer support. We feel very loved. We pray that through this whole ordeal it will strengthen our witness to our local community in Uganda! They have surrounded us with love and encouragement and we pray that we can continue to be a blessing to them.
We are feeling the financial strain of such a large medical bill and we ask that you prayerfully consider helping us in this way. We do know that God has it all in His hands and we trust in that completely, but sometimes it is hard for our earthly minds to grasp the magnitude of it. If you feel God prompting you, please use this link to make a tax deductible donation.
His first walk out of the room! |
