Prayer Request Update - 10/8 - 2:25pm

Brandon & Leah (Monkhouse) Denison were in a car accident on Hwy 82 in Blossom on Monday night. A lady pulled out in front of them...their car ended up in the middle of the road. (Brandon is a DPS officer out of Clarksville and he knew he had to get Leah out of the car and off the road. About the time they got to the side of the road an 18-wheeler hit their car!!) Leah was admitted to PRMC/South with internal injuries...that have continued to worsen. Today at 1pm, she was taken to Baylor/Dallas by ambulance. Her liver has lacerations and her pancreas is enlarged, her liver enzymes have doubled, from what they should be, and she is running fever..which is not a good sign. Leah is a RN with Millenium Home Health.

Prayer Request Update - 10/8 - 2:13pm

Kenneth McDonald's family has this further update...."Kenneth has been in ICU since 9/25. He has been diagnosed with ARDS (acute respiratory disfunction syndrome) and it does not have a cure. The Dr. says it came from the pneumonia. He is in active kidney failure and is on a ventilator in an induced coma. Traci (his wife) is scared, but has faith in our Lord Jesus. Please pray that God will let his blood sugar stay normal, so his body can heal and allow the toxins in his lungs and body to be removed and his body absorb the fluid in his lungs."

Prayer Request Update - 10/8 - 12noon

Yvonne Endsley is very low at this time...possibly near death. She is at the Paris Nursing Center across from Sears. Please keep Laura and the family in your prayers at this time.

I have placed links to the Brazil missionary team and links to those that having Caring Bridge websites. All you have to do is click on the link and it will take you to their site. If you have another of the websites that I can put on here, please let me know! Thanks ... Molly.

Please keep Joel McGee in your prayers. He went to the doctor yesterday and tested positive for Type A Flu. John said the doctor thinks it may be swine flu.

Ed & Cheryl Bullard's grandson, Trent Bullard, has been confirmed with the H1N1 virus.

Peggy Robinson's brother-in-law, Sonny Daughtrey, had open-heart surgery yesterday (10/7). He had 3 arteries that were 95% blocked. He was in surgery for over 8 hours and the Dr. told the family it was one of the worst cases he had seen. They also found a spot on his lung that is being sent for a biopsy. He is in ICU at PRMC-S.

Norm Davis will be having cataract surgery soon. His wife Patsy told Debra Usry that the Dr. says it looks like he's also had a heart attack.

Annetta Cooke's nephew, Dustin Anderson, will be deploying to Iraq within the next couple of weeks.

Lesa Bulls sent this update on Kenneth McDonald: "He is resting comfortably on his new air bed in ICU....still on the ventilator. He has been diagnosed with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome....a complication from his lung infection. The recovery will be slow and he will be supported with oxygen for some time while his lungs heal. He has also been diagnosed with diabetes. Keeping his blood sugar under control has been a challenge. First it was too high, yesterday...too low. Diabetes also slows the healing process."

John Urbano has been moved to PRMC/North - 3rd Floor for rehab. He had taken a turn for the worse...and then gotten better! He is VERY happy to be back in Paris.

Dinah Borders' friend, Shirley Jones, is in PRMC/S with many health problems.

Amber Ryser Bridal Shower (Glen & Maeda Lee's sister-in-law). This will be Sunday, October 18th from 1:30-3:00pm at the building. Amber has made no selections made but she loves to cook and loves recipes and cookbooks. (If you have any questions, contact Debra Gage.)

Kimberly Daniels' son, Payden, has had seizures 2 nights this week. Now that he's seeing a neurologist in Dallas and has an injection to take after the seizure has lasted 3 minutes, she has to call 911. They were in the ER on Wednesday & Thursday nights. The one he had on Thursday night lasted 8 minutes! She gave him his "emergency seizure medicine" and he then had another one about 30-45 minutes later! Kimberly has asked that we "send out some prayers for my little man..they have up-ed all his meds again..so hopefully things will calm down again!!".

Jimmy Exum was involved in a hay-baler accident this morning. The baler broke and he was pinned between the fender and the round bale of hay. He's at PRMC-South ER now. He has lots of scratches, and is complaining of pain in his chest. He is the dad of my co-worker, Ashley.

Please pray for all those that have the flu. It's really bad this year and SO many are sick.
