Morning 7-23-10

Day 5

Guy spent the night on his back without the bed moving. We are waiting on the doctor to check the chest x-ray and then hopefully give the orders for him to move back to a normal bed. Guy is still hit and miss on following commands during the neurological assessments but know that he does occasionally means the brain is firing.

Prayer for Guy
-move to the normal bed
-tolerate the waking up process better
-or the drainage to stop from the lung so that tube can be removed
-to get off the ventalator
-ultimantly complete healing

Prayer for myself and the rest of the family
endurance and strength
continued wisdom

Since I started this post the doctor came in and he IS being moved to regular bed and the lung injury is imporving-Praise be to the Lord.

  3. Praise be to God for handling the lung situation with Guy! And praise be to Him for all He has done, is doing, and will do.

    Vicki - today at lunch one of the kids prayed over our meal and said, "Amen." Then Neeley said, "Wait." And she bowed her head and said, "And God, please be with Mr. Newcomb." We all love you and are praying for you and your whole family.

  8. Vicki,
    I'm so glad to hear that Guy is in a regular bed. One step at a time is great! I was working out at the Y today and on a chalkboard they had a bible verse that made me think of you and your family.
    "So don't worry, because I am with you. Don't be afraid because I am your God. I will make you stron and will help you; I will support you with my right hand that saves you."
    -Isaiah 41:10
    Thinking of you all and praying constantly! Love you guys!

    P.S. I put a prayer request up at the Y just asking people to pray for recovery for Guy and to pray for your family. Didn't give any details. Hope that's ok.

  12. This morning when I was push-mowing my yard, I was thinking about you and your request for prayer in order that you will have wisdom. I have been reading a lot about abiding in Christ and I am realizing more and more that the closer we abide with Christ the more certain we can be that we have the mind of Christ. So trust your instincts. While you abide in Christ, He will give His mind concerning your circumstances. Sometimes we make obtaining wisdom too hard. It's really not, if we are spending our energy focusing on the Heavenly Father. He has Guy and you and your children in the palm of His hand. Be encouraged...you are full of His wisdom!
