Thank you for keeping Lonnie in your prayers.....
we love our brother and this has been another hard day.
Michele gave us two updates today........
Lonnie - July 2019
this morning's was not so good.
Lonnie had a bad night with several set backs.
Elevated heart rate and ammonia levels so he received medications for both of those.
The MRI showed a sub acute stroke but they can't say exactly when that happened.
His eyes are open now but he's still not focused.
Lonnie - February 2019
Going to see his grandkids
We were all just heart sick over the news but kept a prayer vigil going for him from our separate homes.
January 29th, 2019
Lonnie's 64th birthday
Deanie sent us photos and that helped us. Just seeing him makes me smile.
He loves his family and nephews, nieces, siblings, cousins.
Lonnie is a truly loving man and as gentle as they come.
Everyone loves Lonnie!
Then later in the afternoon, we received another update that was more encouraging.
Michele sat with him for a couple of hours and Lonnie knew she was there.
The medications worked and his blood pressure and heart rate improved.
She and the pulmonary doctor kept missing each other so she will get a call from him later.
And the neurologist will see Lonnie tomorrow.
All of this was good news but the best was yet to come.
Michele sent us this beautiful message.....
I kissed his forehead and said, "I love you, Lonnie."
He opened his eyes and nodded his head with a hard YES!
The nurse, Matt, said, "Now that's the response I was looking for!"
So we continue in prayer as we wait on the Lord.

What a precious response! That's good!
That's so wonderful to get an encouraging response! Keeping all of you in my prayers!
It is so hard to be the ones waiting, don't give up and keep the faith. These ups and downs are encouraging as he does keep bouncing back up. I don't think he wants to give up either.Continued prayer always!
We do a lot of waiting on The Lord in this life. Praying that The Lord is not ready for Lonnie yet. His family needs him more! God is good. All the time.
Thank you Linda for this update on your brother, Lonnie, and we will keep him in our prayers as well.
Keeping your brother Lonnie, and you and your family, in my prayers!'

I will continue to pray for his healing and for all of you as you learn of his progress.
