Saturday, February 13 Prayer Needs

 Dad's condition seems to be worsening some since last night. He has a small leak in his lung which is causing subcutaneous air, he has required more support from the ventilator, and they are having trouble keeping his oxygen levels up.   He is still able to respond to questions, but they are keeping him mildly sedated to keep him comfortable.   The goal is to move him to a facility down in the valley as soon as he is stable, but we need to see improvement from where he is currently at first.  

Please pray hard tonight.   Pray for his oxygenation to improve, his ventilator support to come down, and for further healing of his lungs.   Please pray for his doctors and nurses to have the wisdom and skill to manage this complex illness.  

Christ, have mercy.
