Christine is back home… Waiting on IV&#39;s

7pm Nov. 14

Dear Friends,

A quick update on Christine and specific prayer requests.

Thursday afternoon at the hospital she had slept a lot, partially due to the meds, especially the anti-nausea med. She didn't' get a lot of food into her. 5 attempts to get a Mid Line (good for a month, rather than an IV thats good for 3-4 days) left her tired and sore. She came home Thursday evening about 8pm. The last IV came out around 6pm.

She was discharged into Home Health Care (rather than Hospice - only comfort) and we were expecting to go home to an IV… Then Friday morning, but the order was never placed…

As I type, it's Saturday evening 7pm. It's been over 48 hours that she's been without an IV, and with all the sleeping, she's getting rather dehydrated again… They should be dropping off the IV's any minute, oh, and they're not covered by insurance…, but looking forward to getting her hydrated again. Praying we haven't lost all the good of the 7 days in hospital.

UPDATE: 11PM
We are connected & dripping. A whole chain of events not that interesting to describe, but enough to delay us all day… 2 bags, rather than 4… more to investigate tomorrow, showed up & the nurse a few minutes later… Christine is connected and getting hydration Praise the Lord! The bags should last about 20 hours, so looks like we'll have to try to get more tomorrow. She has a doctors appt. Tuesday, and blood work Monday.

Please pray for a quick recovery from this latest speed bump, great blood work on Monday, and that NOW she keeps improving and we climb out of this latest valley and only go up from here…

Today our friends Ray & Cheri come with their home group and pulled weeds, mowed, and painted the guest bathroom. Such a blessing. They all prayed with us also. A beautiful day!!!

You can see that even though she's very week, Christine got outside and saw Bambine's new Sandbox which he loves!!!!!

Please SHARE the prayer map. Let's get every country!!!
