Danni's Resting

September 18, 2008

This morning is a sleepy morning. Danni hasn't been feeling well today. Her back hurts up near her shoulders and she was nauseated today so she's been sleeping quite a bit. I'm in her room sitting in my chair listening to her deep breathing. She's sleeping pretty good.

Yesterday was a struggle as she had a bed malfunction in the night and "it tried to eat me!" she said. So we had to have the bed people out to replace it and she had to be in a wheel chair for quite some time waiting. She did a lot of sliding back and forth on her transfer board from the bed to the wheelchair then back again so maybe that's why she's sore today.

She's still very weak and has only stood with help one time since coming home from the hospital. She's not very happy when she has to get out of bed because she says it's too much work but I've been trying to encourage her to move around.

Her sugar has been consistently over 200 for the last few days, it doesn't seem like the insulin is working very well. She's up to 120 units a day hopefully we can get it under control soon.

Every day I wake up thinking, will this be the day when God heals her? I will wait patiently for him to move. We need a miracle!

I'm supposed to get out of the house today, her grandma is coming to sit with her but I may not leave if she's not feeling better. "You need to go," she says to me but I would probably be wondering about her all day. She never thinks of herself. She's always concerned about me or the other family members.

Thanks for your continued prayers.

Hi Guys,
Not a day goes by without me thinking of you and praying for you. remember Psalm 121:4 "Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep." God is there....HE IS STIL IN CONTROL! And, we are standing in faith with you.

Blessings,
Ps. Harold

Hi Danni sweetie! We have been thinking about you a whole bunch here at IBC. Mrs. Carunchia updates us as to how you are doing and feeling. I found this blog and wanted to leave you a comment.
Our hope for you is that all your days are filled with no pain, the love of your family and friends, and a peace in your heart that God loves you!
I will leave you with these verses...
Philippians 4:13 I can do ALL things through Christ who STRENGTHENS me!

Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear,for I am with you; do not be dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Proverbs 3:5&6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths.

Hold fast to these promises from God! You are his child and He loves you more than you can imagine.

WE love you too and think of you often. May God wrap His arms around you and give you the strength you need!
In our prayers at IBC,
Cindy Rohlfing
