    So glad you found shoes that you can wear Barb, still praying that your toe will heal completely and you have a speedy recovery and healing! 🙏

    Susan, Praising God with you that Colin has lost 6kg of water weight. Great News. My Cardiologist put me on a good medication that looks after my heart and controls BP and works as a diuretic also. I retained fluid and they were concerned as they wanted to keep Fluid Build-up and Retention away from the heart. I continue to keep Colin in prayer. 🙏

    Praying for Judith, Colin, Glen Susan. Marilyn, Judith & Lori

    Judith, that's good that you have a heart medication that works for you. I hope they have one for Colin.

    Barb, thankfully you could wear shoes to church. I hope they gave you a good welcome.

    We're concerned for Joe, our friend under palliative care. He was taken to hospital with a lot of pain today.

    Also there are extreme floods in Far North Queensland, especially in Townsville where my nephew, pregnant niece and my great niece live. The floods haven't peaked yet. Please pray for safety and strength in the clean up to come.

    Susan, I am so sorry to hear about the floods in North Queensland that are near where your nephew pregnant niece and your great niece live. I am praying for a hedge of protection around them that the Lord will keep them safe. I’m also praying for the safety and strength for everyone who will be involved in all the clean up. 🙏

    Floods are peaking today. Nephew & family are safe but are using a pump to keep their yard drier. Niece is expecting twins next month.

    Joe is in hospital with pain, weakness and high blood pressure.

    Colin's insulin pump is struggling with his heart failure. The Diabetes Educator is going to consult with the Clinician and get back to us today or tomorrow with his recommendations.

    Prayers that the drs get back soon to Colin or Susan with his recommendations.
    On our local news they had a bit about your flooding there in Queensland. Also mentioned that you may have rain the whole week. Praying.

    Thank you, Judith. The floods are subsiding in Far North Queensland now but there will have to be a massive clean up. We're not sure the rain is really over yet for them either.

    84yo Pastor Joe was in a better state today but hasn't been allowed home from the hospital. Colin has visited him today.

    Please pray for 80yo Pastor Buddy too. He collapsed at a church he was at in Far North Queensland on Sunday and they revived him, but broke two ribs which punctured his lung. He is confused and bleeding internally and isn't expected to.live beyond a few days. He also has blood clots. The church sent 15 to sing his favourite hymns to him. He knows the Lord and this faithful, much loved man will be welcomed at heaven's gate, I am sure. We're too far away to visit but are sure praying for him to feel the Lord's presence and to have no more pain.

    Susan I am praying for 80 year old Pastor Buddy that he will be comforted with God’s Hand of Healing on his body that all pain, internal bleeding and confusion be gone in Jesus Name. We give thanks to God for preparing a Mansion in Glory for dear Pastor Buddy and if this is your Will for Pastor Buddy to come Home God will Send His Angels to carry him home to Heaven, in Jesus Name I Pray, Amen.

    Susan I continue to lift Colin up in prayer that his Doctors will report back to Colin’s with their recommendations that will turn things around and find the right treatment and medications that will help Colin.

    Ipdates:

    Flooding has started again in Far North Queensland and they had a King tide yesterday which made things worse. Roads and bridges are out, supplies are running low. More rain is coming. Some supplies have been able to be flown in.

    Pastor Buddy is still in ICU but is in his right mind and is feeling better. His prognosis still isn't good.

    Pastor Joe MAY get to come home from hospital today on stronger pain relief from the Palliative Care Team.

    Our family crisis has become less urgent this week but is ongoing.

    Colin is in a more positive frame of mind as am I.

    Thank you, Barb. Praying for Annabella.

    Pastor Joe is staying in hospital till Monday.

    Pastor Buddy is still in ICU.

    Flooding continues.

    Susan. Than you. Takes months for the reflex to develops all the way.
    Annabella had a good 2 month spot so they can increase the pain meds to 2 times a day instead of one.
    Praying for the flooding, & pastor Buddy & Joe

    My neighbor maybe coming home on Sunday then staying at her father in-laws house. Her husbands dad house.

    Susan, continue to keep Colin in prayer and praying for the Stress Test on Monday. My prayers are with Pastor Joe as he stays in hospital till Monday. Hope he can come home Monday. Keeping Pastor Buddy in prayer, sorry he is still in ICU.
    Continue to pray for the people in Australia who are affected by the flooding. Praying for their safety. 🙏

    Barb, continue my prayers for Annabella, it’s good they can increase the pain meds to 2 times a day if she needs. So sorry she is in pain while her esophagus develops. It’s so tough for an infant to go through this and experience the pain. Hope the pain meds are keeping the pain under control. Praying for you Barb, Mom & Dad and all the family as I realize it’s so hard to see a loved one in pain especially a young infant. 🙏

    Good morning friends. It Sunday so we are getting ready for church. Shaun will bring Yolanda and Inara over for lunch then. I hope Col can cope with all the energy Inara brings! She will be turning 3 next month.

    Judith and Barb, thankfully you for praying for the two Pastors. Pastor Buddy is originally from Texas and Pastor Joe is from England. They have both lived in Australia a long, long time. They are greatly loved.

    Barb, I am glad to know Annabella is in less pain and that her oesophagus has every chance of developing properly. It's hard for the family to watch the suffering for this sweet little baby. Praying she improves quickly. That's good that your neighbour is coming home. I hope you get to see her soon and the Lord provides you an opportunity to talk about Him with her.

    Linda, Marilyn, JC, thinking of you all too and holding you in prayer.

    Susan thank you for letting us know about Pastor Joe and Pastor Buddy, yes I am sure they are greatly loved. Praying for both of these well loved Pastors. Enjoy your time over lunch with Inara and Yolanda praying Colin will be able to cope with 2 little ones running around. Yes a 3 year old does have lots of energy. Have a Blessed Lord’s Day my friend. Prayers for Colin’s Stress Test Monday! 🙏♥️

    Prayers for all, the 2 Pastors, plus wisdom for drs treating them. Colin with the stress test, maybe soon as it’s probably Monday there already.

    Judith. Prayers as Thursday is coming & biopsy. Prayers for drs wisdom too.
    So glad that you have kept the extra ounces on. Prayers that continues this week too!

    Linda
    Prayers for yo to stay warm and have a good week in all you have to do or accomplish.

    My neighbor is to come home today. Her husband’s family have the flu so she is staying at home for a few days. She’s kind of nervous. I told he that I am a retired Para professional who worked with high school students helping in all kind of ways. So when I am home I can help her. Pray maybe more opportunities. I am to watch Mariposa 2 days a week. Though we will have 2 snow storms this week so, who knows.
    Prayers for all.

    Thank you all for praying. It's Monday and we are about to leave for Colin's stress test. It will take most of today and we won't know the results till we have an appointment with the Cardiologist which hasn't been set yet.

    Susan, thank you for letting us know you and Colin are leaving for Colin’s Stress Test. Praying for you both and the Test will go well. Safe travels as you travel the roads to the clinic and back home. ♥️🙏

    Barb, continue to pray for your neighbor that you will have opportunity to both help her and be a witness. Praying God’s Will to be done. Enjoy watching Mariposa 2 days a week, May the Lord keep you strong. Praying for you and your family’s safety as you are anticipating the coming snow storms.
