Close Call

I've been thinking a lot about what a close call we had. My whole focus was on Marty getting better. I thought about the fact that he may lose his foot or something, but the thought never crossed my mind that he might die. When the doctor told us that before he went home, it just hit me like a ton of bricks. I think it really surprised him too. Please pray for his continued recovery and that it comes quickly. The pneumonia is much better so he's "feeling" better, he is just supposed to stay off of his foot most of the time. That is very hard for him. Please pray for patience and wisdom. I would also like to thank everyone again for their prayers, visits, calls, and food. It is such a blessing to have a church family that truly is your "family". We love you all.

Thank You

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who prayed for us during the last week. Marty still has a long road ahead, but he is home. Please continue to pray for us during this recovery. Amy is now his nurse during the day so please pray for patience for both of them!!! I'll keep you updated. Love you all.

Update

As most of you know by now, Marty is in the hospital. For any of you that have know Marty for any time at all, you know this is a miracle in itself! He's not doing great, but he's holding up. He has had a very high fever. Last night it was almost 104. It broke around 3:00 a.m., but when I was there this morning it was back over 101. They are pumping him full of antibiotics and trying to get his sugars way down. They are planning on doing surgery on his foot tomorrow and then we will just play it by ear from there. We appreciate all of your prayers and I hope you all know how very much you mean to us. We love you all.
