Emily visited with Gene this morning before she went to church and found him much more alert than he's been for the last couple of days. Dr. Carver has been called to pastor their church, and as an elder, she wanted to be there. It's good that she's feeling the need to be back in that community. It is a very powerful ministry to see Dr. Carver's faithful visitations with Gene.
This evening when she visited, Gene was tired, and less responsive. His temperature was down to 99. He is on two antibiotics. His pressure setting is on 20 and his oxygen at 50. Steve and Frances and Joyce all called and spoke with Gene on the speaker phone.
Emily makes it a point to go visit Dad at shift change or after so that she can touch base with the staff that will be working the night shift. She knows the staff that is taking care of him tonight and is comfortable that they are competent and attentive.
Prayer Requests
Pray for Gene to gain respiratory strength and to have healing. Pray for Emily to have strength to continue to care for Gene and to take care of her own needs as well.
