Do any of you have prayer requests??

[Karen]

Will do. We know you are a good person, too bad Spook cannot write you a job reference!

Thanks everyone for your prayers - re: the knee. I will remain optimistic until I learn otherwise. And Eileen - thanks for going the extra mile.

Karen - hoping that Luke can be helped. It's so sad when our fur kids are so sick.

Anne - think positive. You have my prayers too - for better days ahead.

DJF - I don't know why you're screwed, but I hope and pray that you get unscrewed soon.

Update from Annie regarding Luke:

Luke's pcv is 1 point up. Yeehaw! He's a fighter. Of course I understand we are far from safe but still. There's hope. Thank you everyone for your support and prayers!

One of our faculty passed last night from a heart attack. Please pray for our faculty, his family, his students, and all his friends.

He is 78 yrs old, and was hospitalized a couple of weeks ago with pneumonia - and congestive heart failure, and also probable kidney issues. He is not in the best of health to start with, being diabetic and having carotid stents and high blood pressure, along with other issues. It was discovered that he has a serious heart murmur and will probably need a valve replacement, however in his present state would not survive open heart surgery. The cardiologist gives him another 2-5 years at best. He is still undergoing tests, so I'm praying that a solution can be found, to extend that expectation.
He could sure use some powerful PT prayers at this stage of the game..........

Thank you. I know at 78 he's already lived a good long and active life, and surpassed in longevity, all the other males on my father's side of the family - father, brother, uncles, nephew, cousins - who all passed on between 40 and their early 70's. Somehow tho, you always want more. I'll be calling him sometime this week to see how his other tests have gone. I'm praying for the best. I always said that he'd probably outlive me, and I'm the youngest. He's the oldest of the 3 kids and the most ornery - so he just may do it yet!
