ER visit

Please pray for Rachel!! The water retention last night went into her ribs and Rachel went to the ER with pain in her ribs and problems breathing. I just got the call from Mom that the X-ray showed only fluid around her ribs that may have cause her ribs to break...PRAISE THE LORD if that is the case. Our fear had been that it might have been the growth of  a tumor that broke the rib.

Yesterday afternoon was so hard for us to see Rachel in so much pain! As we looked into the symptoms we realized that a lot of her discomfort was caused, in part, by the side affects of her pain medication. I am praying that she will be switched on pain medication and maybe get back into the groove of things. However, her being in the hospital is not a good thing.

Please pray for the family...
Rachel needs prayers of comfort because she has been in so much pain! Also that she has peace with all that is going on and not consumed by fear.
The Doctors need prayers for wisdom.
Mom and Dad need prayers for peace and strength. They are going into the hospital now to be with Rob and Rachel.
Rob needs prayers just to be able to think clearly.
I need prayers because I am taking Ethan and Izzy to VBS and then taking care of all the kids in the afternoon.
