08-Oct-08
It appears that Agnes' injuries from the fall may be worse than initially reported. Please keep her in your prayers.
05-Oct-08
Agnes, while at her daughter's home, lost her balance at the top of a spiral staircase, and fell all the way to the bottom. Amazingly, no bones were broken. One side is one large bruise, and she is in a lot of pain, but she is cheerful. Her prayer regarding returning home has been answered, though not in the way she expected: she will not be able to return home until December. She is out of the hospital, and would appreciate your prayers for her healing. Thank you.
29-Sep-08
Agnes is currently living with family, and is scheduled to remain there until the end of the year. However, her desire is to be able to return to her rental unit soon. She would appreciate your prayers for God to open the doors for her to return home without causing any difficulty in the family. Thank you.
Fiske, Bob and Madeleine

Here is an excerpt received from Erin Fiske, Kella's mom:
"Thanks for the prayers and for others praying also. ….."
Erin then mentioned that Kella has been on various formulas and various "feeds." She next wrote:
"She (Kella) can gain weight she just doesn't hold on to the weight. We have a new finding of missing part of chromosome 17q12, which has to do with renal cysts as well. She may continue to be on the small side, as the surrounding chromosomes may have to do with failure to thrive. The geneticist is still researching, it is a rare case as only in the past years has it ever even been diagnosed…. "
Kella is still in the hospital. The family thanks you for your prayers, concern and comfort.
Fletcher, Dan
Complete History
02-Oct-08
Dan was able to return home on the Feast of Trumpets. He is now finally able to sleep—something that was extremely difficult in the hospital—as well as eat food that is much better for him. Even though he is still limited in his activity, he is able to do more and more for himself, and he looks better. His coughing has subsided, but he is still retaining fluid in his feet. The Fletchers extend their heartfelt thanks and love to everyone for the prayers and concern.
29-Sep-08
Dan has had all of the tubes, etc. removed from his body, much to his relief. He has some fluid in his lungs, though, which is a concern. The family is extremely grateful for all the prayers, love and concern on their behalf. Please continue to pray for Dan's recovery and release, so he can return home and mend. Thank you.
Holcomb, Shane and Hannah
Complete History
06-Oct-08
Hannah had an ultrasound today, and there are still two heartbeats. She will continue to have an ultrasound every Friday for the next four weeks. Please continue your prayers on behalf of these little girls, their parents, and their grandparents.
04-Oct-08
Leah reports that two different heartbeats are still being heard. The smaller baby's bladder is collapsed, and the larger baby's heart is enlarged. The doctors will be monitoring the babies daily for the next week, and after that the monitoring should be able to decrease. If the babies can make it for the next four weeks, everything should be OK. Please continue your prayers. Thank you.
03-Oct-08
Leah Pennington is asking for urgent prayer for her son, Shane, and his wife, Hannah, who is five months pregnant with twin girls. They are going in for surgery because the babies are sharing a blood vessel, causing one baby to grow well and the other baby to be in serious danger of death. The surgery is dangerous; please pray for its success. Thank you.
Hoppert, Karen
Mt. Airy, Maryland
Complete History
29-Sep-08
Please pray for Karen Hoppert, who is once again suffering from depression. Recent blood tests indicate that she probably has celiac disease, and this could be contributing to the depression, but the depression has become so severe that she can hardly function. She does not want to have to be hospitalized and would very much appreciate your prayers for God's intervention to lift the debilitating depression. Also, please pray for Bob who is having problems at work in dealing with all the stress of trying to help Karen and efficiently perform his job. Thank you.

Wulf, Matthew
Matthews, North Carolina
Complete History
05-Oct-08
Thank you for your prayers on Matthew's behalf. After a few hours in the hospital and a few tests, he was doing fine and was able to return home. He has not had any more seizures, and seems to be doing well at the moment. This was the most serious episode of seizures Matthew has had, and at times he was not able to breathe. But God has intervened in this little boy's life once again, and the family wishes to thank everyone for the prayers.
05-Oct-08
Urgent prayers are requested for Matthew, who is being taken by ambulance to the hospital right now because of severe seizures. Thank you.
