THE EXTREME BLESSING of DRAWING UPON THE SOURCE OF STRENGTH, POWER and COMFORT
What an amazing source of strength, of power and of comfort is available to each of us. He who knows us better than we know ourselves. He who see the larger picture and who knows the end from the beginning has ASSURED us that He WILL be there for us to provide HELP IF we but ASK. We have the promise "Pray always, and be believing and ALL things shall work together for your good'"(d&c 90:24).
-President Thomas S. Monson
So Ronald is continuing to beat the odds (the medical odds) and has had another bump up in his overall improvement of health status. Listen to all the good news:
Currently he has been taken off the dialysis machine, all sedation meds, all heart pressor meds, in fact all meds except his antibiotic and his glucose and medicines to try to stimulate his bowels!
His current labs have now shown that his liver and kidneys are beginning to recover which in itself is just another grand miracle. Of course full recovery of these vital organs will takes much time but it has been such a sweet relief to see signs that they just may do that eventually! So powerfully blessed!!
Meanwhile.... he still in what is being termed a Ammonia induced coma... to simple explain this...When Ronald's body went into septic shock his body released increased amounts of ammonia which in itself causes self sedation. The only way to rid his body of the increased ammonia is through a bowel movement. Unfortunately his bowels, although having been stimulated and medicated to do so, are not coordinating! SO!!! After deeply and sincerely thanking our Father in Heaven for the shower of miracles he has granted us thus far we are addressing the Lord humbly with our great desire for Ronald's body to be blessed with an prompt ability to have healthy and activate bowels in order to expedite his ability to remove this sedating ammonia from his body and
assist in Ronald regaining cognition and faculties to their full capability!!!! We would once again invite any and all to join with us on praying for Ronald's bowels to begin to function properly and effectively as soon as possible!!
We are all so full of gratitude for our enormous and faith filled army of friends and family that is most certainly joining forces with the Lord to sustain our family and even more specifically our unbelievably strong warrior as we all continue to fight this powerful yet sacred battle!!
We love you all and please know we are praying daily for all of you, that you and your families will be not only blessed for your true love, compassion and faith but that all the blessing available for you will be increased and magnified for the overall well being of each of you!!
So grateful for another blessed day of love, gratitude, and even more miracles!!

ReplyDeleteThe question marks were supposed to be a family holdings hands and a heart. The text didn't accept it. Disregard the question marks ( :
ReplyDeleteWe are so thankful for the updates. We love your family so much and our testimonies have grown because of your examples. The Hearn family is all praying for you guys, we've even sent messages to our 2 missionaries and they are compiling a group of prayer warriors in their missions to pray for Ron and the Simmons family.
