Situation remains critical

Here’s the latest report from Tim and Mary:

Jennifer’s situation remains very critical. The doctors have been able to reduce the strength of the ventilator as the medicine (surfactant) that she received is improving her oxygen absorption. They won’t, however, know if it has been effective on improving the functioning of her lungs for a few more days. This treatment is more like a marathon than a sprint, and the family needs prayers for endurance and continued strength.

Jennifer will receive dialysis today, Wednesday, and Friday. Please continue to pray for her restoration to complete health.

Jennifer’s brother, Tim, arrived home from college and will be able to stay through the Thanksgiving holidays.

Tim and Mary wanted to communicate their thanks for all of the prayers and support. Please continue to check up on them, sign the guestbook, and pray diligently as they will need all the strength, endurance, and support they can get over the next couple of weeks.
