Thank you SO much, Dawn, for your prayers… and for all you wonderful brothers & sisters who have been praying for me and Richard during his ordeal.  I will be spending the night at our home tonight, along with my best GF, Linda (whose house I’ve been staying at, since it is closer to work and to the hospital), so I will put another update (link on main page past the Scriptures).  Richard is improving in every way except they are being very cautious about removing the breathing tube, which has me extremely blue.  There are a couple of reasons this is so.  First of all, I know from previous experience that when he has a breathing tube in his throat, he panics.  If I saw him panicking and struggling to breath, I would freak, so I have not been back to the hospital since his surgery last Saturday.  He doesn’t need to be stressed.  They are keeping him WELL sedated so that he doesn’t fight it.  I am praying that he understands why I haven’t been by since then.  Lord, I miss talking to him, though!  Which brings me to point #2… if I could only hear his voice and be able to converse with him, I would be fine.  But as long as the tube is in his throat, we can’t do that.  The nurse said they are taking their time weaning him from it, because they tried the other night, and it didn’t work very well.  Anyway, I will explain further in the update I spoke of above.  My heart is so heavy.  Thank you again for your prayers!  Hopefully SOON I’ll be able to thank you all in person!
 

Love you all in Him!
