I haven't given an update for a while, so I will. I owe God some praises on this and have failed to give them.

I took my dad, after several rough days, back to his doctor at the VA. I had hope to be able to get my dad into the state Veterans Home, but that did not happen. I showed the Dr. all the things we were battling, and showed him the notes that daddy's home health nurse had documented (like massively dangerous drops in blood pressure). The doctor looked over my dad's prescriptions and was astounded at the level of blood pressure meds that my dad was on since leaving the hospital 2 weeks before. He told us to wait on putting daddy in a home for a few days and let his system flush the other meds. He changed some prescriptions around, and sent us home.

Needless to say, I was mildly hopeful............and doubtful at the same time. OK, I was nearly overwhelmed with the thought of having to help care for an adult child while we played the "wait and see" game.

But, 2 days later, my dad decided he felt different and would not use his walker. He grabbed his cane to walk. He had no more dizzy spells, and his right side no longer just quit on him. He has been walking more and more and more........and without help. He is now talking about moving out of my sister's house into an apartment or something since his own house is no longer habitable.

God is good, and I deserve a kick in the pants for not telling everyone. I've just been very focused on me lately and sinking deeper into that. I have a sadness that I just cannot shake, and I have a pitiful attitude about everything.

So, instead of praying for my dad, maybe you could just pray for me.

Father God, we thank You for all that You have been doing for Chris' dad and that his dad is doing so much better. We praise You and thank You for Your mercies and lovingkindness on his dad, and for the wisdom of that doctor and nurse concerning his blood pressure mediciaton. Thank You that Chris' dad is now feeling well enough to be on his own.

I now lfit up my brother Chris and ask that You will cast away this sadness that is surrounding him and that You will encourage his heart and fill Him with Your joy. Thank You Lord, that when we feel like this, that we know You are always here to encourage and help us. Your Word says that You are our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble......please strengthen Chris.

We love You, Lord. In Jesus' name we pray.....Amen.
