Good news! My dad is out of immediate danger. He is alert, responsive, and aware of his surroundings. All his blood work came back fine, and apparently there is really nothing wrong with him (the fluid build-up is all gone, which is very good!)But his emotional state could use some improvement. He is apparently "angry and mean" because he doesn't like the nursing home, but there is no way my stepmom can care for him at home. Please pray for peace, calm, and the joy of the Lord for Henry.

He is also eating now but will only eat food brought in from the outside (he says he doesn't like the food at the home). So he needs to eat and drink a lot more (he went from 187 lbs. to 165 lbs.). Another prayer request is that he will MOVE! All he wants to do is sit around and sleep, but he needs to be in physical therapy. Betty bought him sweat pants is going to try to get him to go to therapy today when she visits.

Thanks so much for praying! My stepmom said it's very evident that those prayers are being answered.
