Update Of Urgent Prayer Request...

Here is an update on my great nephew Ben...

Thank you for praying for Ben and everyone around him. Darrel left Sunday at 7 am and arrived in WI at Jenny's place about 7:45 pm Monday evening without incident. He was very tired of sitting but doing well.

Ben was sent to xray today because he is running a slight fever and they wanted to check him for pneumonia. His lungs are clear, but they are keeping a close watch on him. He is feeling more pain this time around because they do not have him on the epidural like before. He only has his pain button. He has not had any liquids yet. He said not for a couple of days. After that, then a little solid food. He will be in the hospital a little while yet. He is discouraged but doing okay. I told him you all are praying for him and he said to tell you thanks.

We are trusting God to continue to see Ben improve in health and strength. Unless another drastic turn happens, I will let you know when he is released from the hospital. He is in room 525 at the same address as before. If you need the address again, or want his home address where he will be staying, let me know.

His mother started her radiation treatments today and is not feeling well. She is not able to go see Ben until Wednesday, probably. It is a 2 hour drive from her dads house where she is staying.

Thanks again for your prayers. Hopefully the next letter will have a much better report than the last few have.


Continue to lift up this family in prayer...
