Thanks from our Heart

A big thanks to everyone who has been praying for Martin's father. And for all the concern for him and the family. We are happy to report that it looks right now that he is turning a corner and he continues to get stronger every day.

For those who might not have heard here's a short update. Tuesday night, we received a phone call from Martin's mom that his father had been taken to the emergency room due to severe internal bleeding. This came as a total shock to us as Martin had just listened to a voicemail message from him about 15 minutes before the incident happened. Martin's father was driving home from work when he became very dizzy and nearly passed out, causing a wreck. He was bleeding very severly internally due to blood vessels that had burst. It was a long fight for the doctors to get the bleeding to stop. From the last report, he is on his 15th unit of blood (that is a LOT) and is still very anemic and will have a long slow recovery.

Martin, obviously was very shaken by all of this. It has been very hard for him to be away from his family during the whole situation. It is such a scary position to have your family call to tell you to gather together for the worst. We are so thankful for Martin's dad in our life and can't imagine losing him.

Again, we're so blessed to have numerous people call and tell us that they are thinking for us and praying for Martin's dad. And how many people have offered help in any way we need them. We love you all! What a great testimony of Christ's love you have all been.
