Yesterday after having my treatment, Teresa came to the hospital and we went to see a cousin of hers who is in the ICU.
Two weeks ago no one had any clue that today Stephanie, who is in her mid-40s, would be fighting for her life. She has been on that downward spiral that can come to any of us. Her family was encouraged yesterday because she now opens her eyes when someone speaks to her. The initial diagnosis is possibly leukemia. The results from a bone marrow biopsy will not be available for a couple of days. She had a stoke because the doctors believe that her blood had thickened. I ask you to pray for Stephanie, as well as for her family. She needs a miracle. We serve a miracle working God. As I personally know, God has a way of working in the middle of this kind of crisis. God is at work drawing her family to Him. We take far too many things for granted. When a person responds by opening their eyes and that’s the best news this family has had in a few days, then we need to thank God for the blessings to live what may be a normal day for us. Lord, thank you for the small blessings that come each day. I often fail to see that they are your gift to me. Help me be more cognizant of them today.
