Dear friends and prayer warriors, My son is in the PICU. We called 911 Sat.night as he became increasingly dyspneic with wheezing not going away. He was admitted to PICU, he is flu type A pos. which is 90% likelihood of swine flu. All our children except the one staying at college had the flu this past week. Our precious son was the last to succumb to it and as a result was put on Tamiflu last Tuesday. Our 14 yr old daughter who is no stranger to getting every bug that bites said that it was by far the worst sickness she has ever had. Our other children fared better than our daughter but all had a tough cough to contend with even after feeling better. I recently heard a sad stat that the majority of deaths from swine flu were in children with CP. Of course that is even sadder now that our son is in PICU with swine flu and Sun. night was put on BiPap. Our son has CP (cerebral palsy) and his respiratory system is overwhelmed right now with this virus. He was doing better Sun. during the day and then took a turn for the worse. Since being put on BiPAP his heart rate has come down to almost normal levels after being quite high, o2 is 100%, resp have gone from a high of 80 to the 30's (normal is 16-22). I have become use to my little man pulling through but I am not ignorant of the mountain he has to climb. The PICU doc said if he escapes this he will have dodged a bullet. I ultimately trust in the sovereignty of God. Your prayers are most appreciated for him and also for our family that we may trust God fully for whatever it is, that is His will.

Romans 8:28 And we know that ALL things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

In His Love and by His grace,

Notre père, qui êtes aux cieux!
Que votre nom soit sanctificié. Que votre règne vienne.
Que votre volonté soit faite, sur la terre comme au ciel.
Donnez-nous aujourd'hui notre poindre ce jour.
Pardonnez-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi a ceux, qui nous ont offensés,
et ne nous soumetez pas à la tentation, mais délivrez-nous du mal.
Car c'est à toi qu'appartiènne, le régne, la puissance et la gloire, pour les siècles des siècles.
Amen.

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces,
le Seigneur est avec vous, vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant, et à l'heure de notre mort. Ainsi-soit-il.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
