I need everyone to continue to pray for Brandon...he had a terrible night last night and is getting depressed and very upset...this does not help the healing process. He is having one good day and one bad day...yesterday was a great day and last night was terrible.
I talked to Mandy this morning(I went to hotel for some sleep) and she said that his throat was hurting and he told the doctors that this morning. He is suppose to only have ice chips but has been drinking the melted water as well....he told the doctors that. His stomach is producing too much stomach bile and they can't take out the NG tube that goes up his nose and into his stomach until the production slows way down and it changes colors. So, they are taking away his ice chips too. He is not be allowed to have anything by mouth...period. He got real upset and seems to be sinking into a depressed state. So, mom has to shower and get back to the hospital ASAP.
Please, please pray for a supernatural healing of his stomach so they can take out the NG tube, let his stomach rest x 1 day and then start to introduce liquids and then soft foods. He is so very,very thirsty and getting hungry. He has not had anything since Friday night when he left work. He is really battling right now. Brandon is a lot like his mom...wants to be up and going, always in control and never held back...so this time is very hard for him. He doesn't want to get in a wheel chair and go out of his room because he wants to get up and walk. I have started praying last night that God would reveal himself to Brandon in a supernatural way...so powerful that there would be absolutely no doubt in his mind that God is God, God is real, God is in control and God loves him so much. He's life is not where God wants him to be and I am praying through this tragedy that God would bring him back to where he belongs....walking with Jesus, serving him daily and being a witness for him.
Please, please agree with me in prayer that we will see great things today and tomorrow. I have to go home by Friday and I need him to well on his way to recovery and not taking one step forward and two steps back.
I will keep this updated on my blog at least once a day...if I can get access at the hospital, if not only when I come to the hotel to get a couple hours of sleep.
Thank you so much for all your prayers and I believe we are going to see God do great things in the next couple of days.
Love,
Jennifer

Jennifer, Please give Brandon our love and tell him we are praying for his speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteI know God is working in the spiritual realm! Bondages are being broken and strongholds torn down! I know that through this whole process, Brandon will be able to discern truth and know that God has a purpose and a future for him.
We love you too- and are praying for your strength and encouragement.
love and prayers!

Jennifer,
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to let you know that me (and my whole church) is praying for Brandon. I know God is not through with him and he has amazing things in store. Brandon knows the truth. He knows where his help comes from. I remember the many, many times he cried, prayed and seeked the Lord at the altar at camp and youth. I strongly believe that this is his wake-up call. God is going to bring Brandon through all of this and make him stronger than he ever has been in the Lord. I am believing it! I know we all are and praying specifically for just that.
Know that you and your family are covered in prayers. Please let Brandon know that I love, miss, and am praying for him.
Love yall,

many many are praying in our neck of the woods!!! God has kept you on my mind!!!!
