A Good Sign

Your prayers are working! Mike had been completely unresponsive, but he is now moving his feet on command. He had not moved his legs at all since Monday night until just a short while ago. We’re a LONG way from getting where we need to be (he’s still not moving his arms), but this is a fantastic start. Please keep praying.

Praying for God Himself to intervene in your lives right now. That His mighty power will be exhibited today! Praying Diane that you will be armed with strength and comfort!

Diane,

I cannot be there physically but my prayers have been with you all since this started. I beleive in miracles, and I beleive in Mike. You keep fighting and believing, because I know Mike know's you are there, and he will always do things his way (-:. God has a reason, and a plan for everything he does. Continued strenth for you, Mike, and the family.

Fantastic news. All of us at Airport have been checking and praying for good news. I'm sure Mike senses your presence. God has a purpose in everything, we may not know what it is at the time but He will let us know when He is ready. Stay strong, we're all sticking with you. We just have to keep faith.

Diane,

I work with Mike at RNE. You and Mike are in our prayers. If you need anything at all, just let us know. I live close to you, so let me know anytime if you need anything. Mike is lucky to have you in his corner. Your strength will help Mike tackle this, so he is in very good hands.

Sincerely,
Randy Eargle

May the angels keep you til morning.
May they guide you through the night.
May they comfort all your sorrows.
May they help you win the fight.
May they keep watch on your soul.
May they show you better ways.
May they guard you while you're sleeping.
May they see you through your days.

May they show you new hopes.
May they still your every doubt.
May they calm your every fear.
May they hear you when you shout.

May the angels keep you til morning.
More than this I cannot pray.
I know the angels will never fail you.
And that you will be a-okay.

Hang in there. When God spoke to me concerning my husband's illness, He said, "Small miracles". That's what it has been every step of the way. You are in fabulous hands at Duke. We will continue to pray. May God's peace shine upon you.
