Dads Progress (Saturday)

The girls & I just got home from spending a few days with mom & dad. They transferred dad to the V A in LA on Thursday and we are hoping & praying that his kidneys get taken care of real soon. One of the V A team Dr's finally came in this morning and said we will talk with the scheduling dept on Monday to see when we can get dad in. This is our focus right now...getting the Lithotripsy done (breaking up the stones and then getting both stints taken out). We are so thankful at how much dad has improved in his mobility. He is able to get himself from the bed to a wheelchair without any help!! He can stand for a moment and cannot walk, yet! Dr's were impressed at the quickness of his recovery in this area after the GBS. Stephen went to PATH this week and the Ministry anointed a hanky that he brought to dad at the hospital today. When Stephen arrived, dad was ready to go to the Chapel. We had such a wonderful prayer and believe that God is and has been at work in dad's body. GOD is NOT finished yet!! God has blessed, kept and provided so far in these uncharted waters and we know that He hasn't brought us this far to leave us! Thank you JESUS!!! Mom is in the Fisher House which is so beautiful and we are so thankful that God provided such a place for her...and for FREE!!! Like I said, God has provided all along the way even things we don't really think about until we arrive at such a need.
