Sam’s mother called her preacher (they’re Baptist) and asked him to put Sam on the church’s prayer chain, which they did, and they called the Baptist church here in this town, and they have put him on the prayer chain.
For this church here, the prayer warriors drive by the person’s house, stop in front, and say the prayers there. They told us that people would be stopping all evening, and all day tomorrow. I’m amazed that people would go to that much trouble...
My son’s wife came to town today to see my son-in-law, the two couples are friends, have been for 21 years. She and daughter went to lunch, then to the hospital. They sent some cash just for the kids to be able to buy their dad a present without having to ask their mom for the money.
Sam has morphine on demand, there’s a button he can push when he starts feeling uncomfortable, that will deliver a dose. They got him up to walk today, and I think that was kind of painful, but he’s feeling better this evening.
Thank you, everyone, so much.
Those Baptists sure know how to pray!
(I have a few in my family, too. I love the way they say Grace before meals and manage to pray for everyone and their brothers!)
