Midnight Thoughts from the Center of it All

I actually wrote most of this post in Iowa. Now that I am home I have edited it some, but I feel it is important to share my heart and my struggles while walking thru this. Everyone has struggles. Everyone knows what it is like to feel fear. In the midst of last week, I…

First I must update you all…thank you for your prayers…we were back at the ER again this AM…Dw started running a fever last night and has developed a not-so-fun rash (that means the liver is not emptying the toxins). They found him to be dehydrated and “watered” him. They ran some more blood work and…

We are home!! Our rental never looked so good!! What a trip….I have a feeling that in a few weeks I will wake up and say, “Wow, did that really happen??” Then I’ll shudder and remember… I do have to tell you….I have a feelin’ that some of you were praying that angels would minister…

Just to update everybody that we are stopped for the night in Kearney, Nebraska. I hate to look at a map, because its a long way across this beautiful state. Dw wasn’t able to sleep most of the way, but reclined in the front seat. He’s not up to talking, he just feels too cruddy….

Hard to imagine that just a week ago today we were getting ready to celebrate Tyler and Sarah’s wedding at our friends home. Hard to imagine all that has transpired in that time. Hard to imagine that in one week Dw would be in the hospital….so very sick….and in desperate need of prayer and a…

Update from Iowa City

Once again, I typed a large updating post only to have the internet connection fail. I really am at the end of my gracious tolerance….enough is enough!! So to be as brief as possible: I just talked to Dw for a second. The doctor said some of his numbers are worse, a few are better…but…

I typed a long post explaining everything but the network at the hospital comes and goes. Dw went to ER as he seems to be getting sicker and sicker. They have run a ton of tests. He has Hepatitus. Not sure what type. Liver numbers are bad. Please pray. There are no meds available to…
