"Cheryl, it's Johanna writing tonight. We had a little scare with Dad tonight. It seems like Dad had a small seizure after he had gone to sleep. After about a minute or two, he came around and seems fine now. We called 911, and they came out to evaluate him. Since we are here keeping a close eye on him, they feel like it will be okay to just check his vitals here and not take him to the ER to be evaluated.
As for how the week has gone, Mom took Dad to Jackson on Wednesday for a checkup. They were
pleased with his progress, but they want him to come back next Wednesday
to have a Botox shot in his right hand to help loosen it up. They will
also fit him with compression socks to help with the swelling in his
legs. His brace doesn't fit right now, so he isn't walking. He should
be able to start walking again next week. He is still making progress
with his speech, although his still doesn't try to use the words he can
say to communicate. Steady plodding, but progress all the same!!
Johanna"
I hope to hear back again in the morning with an update on how he does through the night tonight. Please pray for God's peace to fill them tonight, that they are able to rest and that answers will come to the many questions I'm sure this brings up. Even though this is a surprise to us, God is still in control.
“Don’t worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and
petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And
the peace of God, which surpasses every thought, will guard your hearts
and minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7
Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations. Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. Psalm 90:1-2 Lord you have truly been Bro. Easleys dwelling place. We ask that you continue to shine upon him with your love and compassion. We stand on Your word with faith and confidence and know that You do not waver. In Jesus precious name!
