I'm still praying for a miracle but this most recent update has Richie's family hearts broken.

Brian has not answered texts for about 4 days. Grandpa is exhausted. He is worried about his son and his grandson. Richie's situation has deteriorated to the point that his life expectancy seems to be very short since these problems are going to continue.

Richie had to get the pacemaker because of another episode of flatline. To do this they had to cut two of his ribs to attach the wires to his heart. They then needed to put two chest tubes in, Grandpa is not sure why but he assumes that during the pacemaker procedure Richie's lungs needed to be re-inflated. Before the pacemaker was attached, he had to have an emergency bronchoscopy due to mucus plugs and lung not filling with air properly. No talk of Richie going home anytime soon.

I ask that you keep Richie and his family in your prayers. I've let Brian and Shannon know that we are here for them but at this time, they are devastated. Thank you so very much for showing Richie and his family so much love.

My Heart is Broken at this News, Dear FRiend. Daily Prayers Continue with Love for Richie and his Family.

[YouGoTexasGirl]

Prayers go out daily for Richie, Brian, Shannon and all their loved ones. With all the pain and energy it takes for a lengthy hospital stay for a loved one, each new day brings a strength one didn’t know they had, an experience that we might not wish we were going through, a meeting of someone who is ‘sent’ to comfort us and an end to a day with exhaustion and search for an answer and plea for a blessing. God’s blessings are different from ours and some we don’t understand now but will one day when we are with Him. And, we see our strength is not within us, but in Him!!!!!!

We have asked for miracle healing, and still do until we see what God’s will is. I pray for the souls of Richie and family as we see that Richie’s spirit is strong with a joy that knows no bounds but love!! Right where we all should be! I thank you, Amy, for asking for prayers and all your updates as we pray where needed for those who love Richie and we’ve come to love him. It’s brought some real depth to me as when I live in the world vs. in my spirit with Jesus, it brings home some changes I need to make in my spirit and soul and whose I am and want to emulate. We must trust Jesus with all our heart, soul and mind and let Him have us, glorify His name and trust in all He does whether we see it as a gift or as something taken from us where we grow in our spirit.

Richie, we LOVE YOU and pray for you beautiful child of God. Thank you Jesus for bringing him and his family into my prayer time as I know that the many prayers lifted up are heard by you.

Sorry to hear about Ritchie’s decline. I can’t imagine what his famous is experiencing with all the ups and downs. I continue to pray for them. May God strengthen and keep them.
