Lots of Prayer!!

I want to thank everyone for their prayers this week! Angel is feeling somewhat better. She decided yesterday that she would rather be held then play on her own and has continued the behavior today as well. She is still sleeping a lot, but is eating better. Hopefully this means we are on the tail end of the sickness and she will be back to her normal self soon...just in time to leave for KS!

Please continue to pray for me as I am still trying to find out all the health issues I have to deal with. I will be returning to the doctor tomorrow to get my lab work report from last week's visit. I just pray that they have some sort of news that will lead us in the right direction. It gets discouraging going to doctor after doctor! It's been my life for the past few years and I just pray that we are finally getting somewhere. Although the reports are not all that good lately, at least we are finding out what it is that we are dealing with. Sometimes it's just better to know the bad stuff then to know absolutely nothing.

We continue to pray for Jon's cousin as he is healing from his head injury! He is making great progress, but has many obstacles that he will have to overcome in the weeks, months, and even years to come. We know that little Hinton and his family need prayer for strength as they are struggling through this trying time.

We also ask that you pray for a friend of ours that lost her grandbaby last week. The baby was born on Tuesday and past away on Thursday. How devastating to carry a baby to full-term, deliver a presumably healthy baby, only to have him pass away a couple days later. Please pray for this family!

Lots of prayer requests coming from the Barnes household this week. Please just keep on praying, that's what we need! I know I'm asking for a lot, but I also know I have lots of family and friends that are willing to join with me in lifting up these requests. I also look forward to the time when I can share the praise of answers to the prayers!!
