Hey Guys
We had a little setback. Friday they decided to take Mandy off of the breathing machine. Unfortunately, early Saturday morning, her stats started dropping and she coded. The doctors decided to put her on the breathing machine and she is doing better now. They dont plan to try to take her off for a while, giving her lots of time to rest and recover.
Teresa and I were praying, and we heard the Lord tell us that the enemy was attempting to squeeze the life out of her, and us by extention. We took authority and felt peace return. But it taught me something important. Whatever I do I cannot let my guard down. But I know that I cannot stand alone. In fact, we would not have gotten this far if we hadnt had the prayer support that we have. Please dont allow your guard to drop. We are at a very critical time. Eventually they have to get Mandy off of the respirator, or she wont be able to come home with us. We are not rushing this process, and we know that God is in control. She is resting in his arms. Here is a scripture that we are standing on.
If anyone has faith as a grain of mustard seed, he can say to this mountain be removed and be cast into the sea. and it will be done. Mark 11:23
We have a mountain or two in the way and we need our Lord to move them for us. Please ask him to give us the stength and wisdom that we need as well, not only to know what to do about Mandy, but what to do in our business as well.
Thank You For Your Prayers!
Love in Christ

Michael and Teresa,
This is great news! We look forward to seeing a picture of Mandy that will reveal her entire sweet face. Take care of yourselves so that you can continue to take care of your beautiful daughter.
You and Mandy continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
