My dad had another swallow test last Friday to determine if he could begin to drink clear liquids with his meals. He did not pass. He was told that he could repeat the test in 6 weeks, and that he needed to increase his therapy sessions to three a day in hopes of strengthening his throat muscles. He was also told that sometimes people don't get this ability back. Needless to say, he was very discouraged. Please pray that he will heal enough to pass the next test, so that he can have a cup of coffee, a coke, tea, or a Frosty! Ice cream counts as a liquid, because it melts in the mouth.
My sister, Becky, went to the ER this morning, and they determined that she needs gall bladder surgery. She will be added to the end of her surgeon's schedule tomorrow. Please pray for a successful surgery and a speedy recovery.
Thanks so much for your prayers!

My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to my sayings. Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart. For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh. Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life. Proverbs 4:20-23
