The Journey Continues:14th day of fever

Richard went to bed with a temperature last night and he woke up with one.  It has been high enough that he has taken the Tylenol.  He really didn't feel good this morning but he has already left for work.  He worries so much about how much leave time he has.  He mentioned yesterday that he was down to 75 hours.  He so wants to go on that vacation in July.  He is worried that if something doesn't give he will end up in the hospital and use up his time.  Hopefully the medicine he was put back on will make a difference soon.

I did not remind Richard that a year ago on this day at about five in the morning the doctor had came and told me that his outlook was very grim and that it might be a good idea to call the family.  He was on the ventilator with his lungs full of fluid, his kidneys were shut down and his whole system had went septic.  God was with Richard and I then and He is with us now. God is the ultimate healer!  The prayers were flowing then as they are now and we so much appreciate that!!  Thanks!!!


Mark 2:17

New International Version (NIV)
17 On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
