Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Deuteronomy 31:6
"I can't see the forest for the trees" is a saying that has been around for a while. Occasionally I feel like that as I accompany Hu along his journey. Just when we think we are getting rid of a tube or bandage something else crops up.
Hu has three wounds that are not healing properly and are being treated regularly. His body is so weak that it is difficult for them to heal. Please pray with us that they will look much better soon as the possibility of his discharge approaches.
He worked very hard in therapy today (since he hit a low point yesterday) in order that he doesn't lose what he has gained thus far. I can see the struggle that he goes through when he is asked if he can do "one more exercise" but he pushes forward as he awaits the opportunity to relax afterwards.
Hu's prayer last night was asking the Lord that he would not focus on his own health but on those in need around us. We would welcome the opportunity to pray for you and your special concerns as well. Feel free to drop us an email and share your requests with us at sherrilh@earthlink.net. We'd be happy to remember you in prayer.

Thanks so much for stopping by. My hope is that you will be encouraged and comforted by traveling with us on this adventure as you see how God can take the challenges of life to assure us of the living hope that is available by faith to us all through Jesus Christ.
Thanks, also, to each of you who have personally ministered to me and my family through your thoughts, prayers of faith, visits, messages, many acts of kindness and words of encouragement, especially during those dark days, and then for the long haul during my extended recovery season.
