Gene's respiration pressure was lowered a bit today. He is still very tired, but seems to be much more comfortable. He is having difficulty breathing when he is turned to his left side, but seems to be doing better overall with breathing today.
Emily got up and went to Kindred at 6:30 this morning. She came home in time to go to church for the first time since Gene went into the hospital. It was a Gideon service, and it was a good time for her to go to a service. After church, she went to lunch with some friends and then right back to Kindred again. She was planning to go back again to say good night at bedtime.
Prayer requests
Please pray for Gene to continue to improve, for his respiration to grow stronger every day, and for his body to have the resources to heal the pressure wound. Pray for Emily to have the strength to take care of her own needs as she advocates for Gene and cares for him.

It was so good to see Miss Emily at church yesterday. As the gentlemen from the Gideons was speaking, Mr. Gene was very much in my thoughts. I'm sorry I didn't get to see Miss Emily after church--I lost her in the crowd--but I do want both of you to know that I think of you so very often, and hope for the day that both of you are back with us at 1st Cumberland.
