Thank you for your prayers, we truly appreciate them and believe in the power of prayer!! Please pray for Dave's mom, she was admitted to the hospital last night in Lincoln. Please pray for Inie's healing, she is pretty weak and found out she must be on dialysis.

After this morning's x-rays the doctors said Dave needs to be on TPN for a minimum of 2 weeks. That means no more food by mouth (only water) and they had to put the PICC line back in. This news was pretty discouraging for Dave. The doctors feel food taken orally only disturbs the pancreas more and it just needs a break in order to heal. They are doing this so they hopefully don't have to do surgery on the pancreas. Dave's WBC is down today to 33,000. The doctors said the TPN can be administered at home IF Dave's WBC, pancreas enzymes, and other important "numbers" become more stable at a normal level.

Praise!

• Dave was able to get some uninterrupted/rarely interrupted sleep this afternoon!
• Dave didn't have as many breathing episodes today!

Prayer Requests:

• Dave's mom will regain her strength.
• Dave's pancreatitis will settle down.
• Dave will only be on his 'TPN diet' for 2 weeks.
