Update on my wife 6-30-21 good news!

[GoodOlBoy]

Heather is still listed as in "acute crisis" by the doctors and hospital. But after my sister-in-law threw a quack oncologist out of the room this morning before I got there, we got to talk to the current Dr in a "family meeting". I wish I could remember this gentleman's name, but my everything is shot at this point. He is of the opinion that everything on Heather is fixable, treatable, or curable... It is going to be a very long and hard road, and she could still pass on us at any time, but he is much MUCH more upbeat about her chances. If she continues to improve, IF they can keep her heart from failing from the stress, IF they can get her breathing on her own, and IF they can... You get the point. There's a laundry list of "ifs", but holy cow this guy made all feel like there is actually still a chance (opposite stance of last Dr). As for Heather herself. Praise the good Lord she was able to focus her eyes on us today, sometimes give nods or head shakes, squeeze our hands, etc. Her progress is extremely slow. We are talking percentage points of percentage points, but she ISN'T getting worse right now. She is nowhere near out of the woods. Not even remotely. But she has a chance. And while she has a chance, no matter how small, we will keep on keeping on. God Bless!

Still praying for Heather and You - A better Doctor is worth a lot. It can mean the world in terms of state of mind and emotional outlook. Praise God for each degree of improvement.

Richard, I will be honored to pray for Heather and you.

Father, I come to You because you are the Great Healer and You are the one to guide the medical team that are attempting to heal Heather. Father, Please grant her comfort and healing. Please give Richard the strength to be with Heather and give him comfort as well. Father, I know that we come to You with numerous requests and we know that You walk with each and everyone of us; but Father please grant this prayer and the prayers of all of us praying for You to restore Heather back to Richard and her family. AMEN

Thank you everybody! For today!

Daily Heather Update: 7-2-21 (I thought maybe I should start putting dates) Heather is staying stable. very slight improvements overall (again percentage points of percentage points here). However she was able to breath assisted (as opposed to the machine breathing for her) for over six hours today. Yesterday it was barely four hours. Other than that all the issues are still present, but the doctors and nurses are working their behinds off to help her. God Bless.
