Hello...

It has been a long, long week. I've missed a couple nights of sleep again but that is a mother's job; to be concerned about her kids. Isaac was passing a parasite in the last week and it was tough. We went to the doctor today and changed some of what he is taking. He is now on some nutritional support. The one is a powder the doctor said you could live on, it is that nutritious, contains everything your body needs. It is like Ensure but doesn't have the sugar and milk that Isaac seems to have a hard time digesting. It is a powder and we make it in a fruit smoothie. Isaac of course hates it!! So, I am going to pay him a dollar for everyday he will drink the three glasses of it. I would love to pay him a dollar a glass but he is satisfied with the dollar a day. He did drink the first glass down after that without lots of trouble. Please pray for him to get this down without upset because whenever he gets upset it makes his digestive system not work right. He is also taking some electrolyte solution (like pedialyte) but tastier. He likes this very much. He is also on something to bulk up the diarrhea.



Specific prayer requests: Pray for Isaac to drink down the stuff each day.

Pray for these new things to nourish his body.

Pray for healing in his intestines.

Pray for him to pass all the parasites (They keep laying eggs so

you have to keep working on them until they are all gone.)

I am so proud of Isaac and his strength during this time. He has shown incredible endurance. Thank you again for praying for him. We know the Lord is with us and guiding us and loving us. Thank you for loving us too.
