Heather here. Mom is very weak today. She is still in ICU and will be kept on the ventilator through today at least. The doctors would like for her to be able to rest today while still on the ventilator. She is having dialysis this morning and they are expecting to pull off a lot of fluid, which we hope will help her breathing some. Please pray for her comfort and strength today. Also be praying for us as we fight to keep up our own emotional strength through this. We want to continue trusting God, that He is the Great Physician, and that He has a plan for Mom and her future.
"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11
Thank you so much for your offers of help at this time. Right now, if you could just continue praying for Mom and for our strength, that is all we could ask. Your prayers mean so much to us.

Rusty, Karen, Heather & Ashley, our family is thinking about you today and praying that God will watch over her and keep her safe. Resting on the ventilator is a good thing, trust me. I was a Respiratory Therapist for 20+ years. If you have any questions about the vent, breathing or anything like that , please call adn I will do my best to answer your questions. I know sometimes no knowing what the machines are or what they are doing makes us scared sometimes. I believe Karen is a fighter, because she had been through a lot and has already come a long, long way. She is a tough woman and WILL make it through this trying time. Remember God only deals out what you can handle, and I believe she can handle this. We will be praying and thinking about you all every day. God bless your family. 336-596-7841 Mr. & Mrs. Watson
Rusty, William is to have prostate surgery early tomorrow morning and will be spending tomorrow night in the hospital. We will continue to check the blog and keep you close in our hearts and in our prayers. Much love to you, Karen, Heather, Ashley, and Russ.

Karen, Rusty, and family,
This is from Pam Brown, David's wife. We are following your blog updates along with our Sunday School class - Agape Class - at Old Town Baptist Church (I hope you don't mind). You guys are on our prayer list. We will be lifting you all up in prayer. Karen I pray that you will be feeling much better soon, on the road to recovery, and then,
getting another kidney. We wish you the best.
I have been checking back a few times during the day. Hope the dialysis this morning made Karen feel better. Keeping ya'll in our thoughts and prayers...
Love always,
Dobbie, Ken and Mama Dobson
