After the good news report yesterday, I'm sorry to say Robert had a very rough night and day today. This is thanks to a bladder infection which is causing him no end of intense discomfort. It's frustrating that when his other pain is under better control, he has had to contend with this. So let's attack that infection with prayer .... seems the antibiotics, which they finally decided to give him today, need a little boost in order for Robert to get some much needed relief.
He did sit up with much assistance again today but with the other discomfort, it wasn't that triumphant an experience. Tomorrow will surely be better.
Once again we've been blessed with visits from family members, as well as from Laura from the CBWC. Apologies from Robert to Pat MacDonald that he was in no shape to receive visitors when you stopped by.
Thanking you all again for your prayers, trusting God to move through Robert with His healing power,
Chris

Hello again!
Thank God that they have given Robert medication to help heal his infection! I was blessed by this scripture on my daily devotional calendar in two ways today. First for the revelation of truth, secondly because it called me up on something the LORD had suggested I do last week. The LORD asked me to ask Robert to pray for John Knox. Today He reminded me of it when I pondered the truth of this scripture "After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord made him prosperous again and gave him twice as much as he had before. Job42:10". I trust that you will pray about this Chris to ensure it is as God wills. Forgive me for my disobediance. In Jesus name. Amen
I thank God that he continues to bring the specifics to the forefront that we may pray directly to the root. I thank Him for the continued assurance that He is in charge. In Jesus name. Miss your hugs Chris so I am sending you one now. D.M.
Hey Robert!
That's fantastic that you're able to sit up. Now you can look at your toes instead of up your mother's nose!haha! Seriously though, it's a huge accomplishment and a huge answer to prayer! I'm praying for you everyday and now especially for that bladder infection. I'm praying that everyday will be better than the day before. I so want you to have a good day today Robert and I hope that any visitors you might get would truly lift your spirits. We're all pulling for you!
