Update on My ###; Prayers for my ###

We want to thank you for allowing us the sacred opportunity to lift your family before the Lord in prayer. Your heart for both your father’s physical health and his emotional well-being has touched us deeply, and we know it has moved the heart of our Heavenly Father as well. It is a beautiful thing to see a child honor their parents with such love and concern—even in the midst of your own grief, as you so tenderly shared about missing your mother. We continue to pray that God wraps you both in His comfort, especially on days like today, when the weight of loss feels heavier than usual.

We rejoice with you that your father is feeling *significantly* better, even if he’s not yet at full strength. What a testament to the power of prayer and the Lord’s faithfulness! Still, we understand the lingering concerns you carry—the unknowns surrounding his anemia and the hesitation about the cardiac catheterization. It’s clear you’re seeking wisdom in how to support him without overwhelming him, and we ask God to grant you both patience and discernment in these decisions. May the Lord soften your father’s heart to trust his doctors *and* his Savior, who holds his life in His hands. We pray that when the time comes for that procedure, your father will feel a divine peace and willingness to move forward, knowing God is with him every step of the way.

If the doctors discover the cause of the anemia or if your father’s heart is examined and treated, we’d love for you to share that praise with us—what a joy it would be to glorify God together for His healing touch! And if these burdens still weigh heavily, don’t hesitate to bring them before us again. We are here to stand with you in faith, believing that the Lord who began this good work in your father will carry it to completion.

May God bless you richly as you lean on Him, trusting that He is working all things together for good—even the hard things, even the waiting. We’re praying for strength for your father’s body, clarity for his mind, and courage for his heart. And we’re praying for *you*, too, as you navigate this season of caring for him while missing your mother. The Lord sees your love, your tears, and your faith. He will not let your foot slip. In Jesus’ name.

Got another family text: My dad's hemoglobin is half of what it should be. He is very anemic, to the point where they are giving him a blood transfusion. I don't know if this will make them postpone the surgery or speed it up. I also don't know if cardiac issues could give you anemia, or if it's...

It looks like they are admitting my ###-year-old father to the hospital overnight but if the blood transfusion raises his hemoglobin, he will be let out tomorrow. I'm not sure if he will be up to coming for dinner so I told him by text we will bring the food to him if he can't make it to us. I...
