Update on David and Don.


This is yesterday before we went to breakfast and then to get my driver's license. I was pouring some cream to take for Don's coffee.

Don felt way better today. He even mowed the yard and trimmed. It hadn't been trimmed all year and I had mowed the other two times it was mowed. It's been so dry that the grass has only barely grown; most of it is brown! Anyway, he's much, much better.

David is another story. It's his staph infection that is septic, so that is so serious. He had a rough night because his breathing was so difficult. Today they drained a liter and a half of fluid off his lungs, so that has helped his breathing a lot. At this morning's report he was not responding to the meds they are giving him for the staph. I hope we'll have better news tomorrow. Dorothy is holding up very well. She's tired, but she goes up and spends all day with him. She has to wear a gown, gloves and a mask to be in the room with him, and you know it's got to be so stressful to not be able to do anything to help him. God bless them both! Thank you for your prayers for them.
