Update: Sunday, April 24th:
I want to share with you and the prayer warriors the blessings the benevolence of Christ has bestowed upon me and mine due in no small way to your prayers.
This morning the infectious disease specialist came by to advise me that the MRSA cultures had turned during the night... Better still, the wound has begun to heal and is no longer draining as terribly as before, making the infection far less communicable.
With all that, the doctors lifted my no-contact orders and I got to have visitors this morning! My prayers were literally answered as I got to hold my baby Miranda and young son Andy. It was truly my best Easter ever.
... Thanks be to Christ and to all those who were champion to me and mine with their prayers.
Thank you, and God bless.
