Friday Afternoon

Hello all,
This is Beth. Just a short update to say that Phil has taken 3 very short walks, put on clean pj's (real ones,not hospital issue), ate lunch, sat in a chair and is now sleeping soundly. Dr Phil is worn out but in a good way. The pain seems to be getting manageable, his appetite is returning and he's getting proficient with a walker. All good news. Please keep your prayers coming. The coming days and weeks will be filled with ups and downs but for today, it's a up day (Thank you Father)

  2. Please be reassured, Beth, that the prayers will continue for Phil and for all of you during this trying time and beyond. It sounds like this was a big day for Phil with walking, changing into fresh p.j.s, etc. The things that we all take for granted must seem like a monumental task to him at the moment, but I do not doubt for one minute that Phil will work hard to accomplish what he must do. I am so glad to hear that the pain is becoming more manageable and that his appetite has returned.
    My offer to help has not expired ... please call me if there is ANYTHING I can do for you or for him. Telephone is: (585) 394-0085 E-mail is executype@rochester.rr.com
    Hugs to all of you ... Anne

  4. Father, place your healing hands on Phil and continue your marvelous works in him. When spirits are down wrap your loving comfort around him and his family and encourage their hearts and minds in the awesome ways you do. Give Beth ALL that she needs at this time with her everyday task and helping her husband recover. Travel mercies to Kate and Molly as they head back home. Bless all who are involved with Phils care and we give all thanks and glory to you! In Jesus name AMEN.
