This is Lisa Hanna posting on behalf of Brad and Jenny. Brad began this AM feeling extremely short of breath. They waited a while for this to dissipate, but it did not, and actually got progressively worse. They called the doctor, and made a decision to call Hospice. The nurse came out and gave Brad some medications to ease his breathing and anxiety (stemming from his difficulty breathing), which do indeed help, at least for a while. We are not sure the exact cause of his sudden deterioration--there is a long list of possibilities. However, what we do know is the power of God, and even in this desperate hour, we are still pleading and praying for His miraculous healing. Brad is courageous, and fighting--his strong spirit and sense of humor in the face of these circumstances is awesome to see. We all know that there are so many people praying and pleading on Brad's behalf, and I know that Brad, Jenny, David, Sandra, and the rest of us are so grateful and comforted with that knowledge. Please continue to pray--and knock it up a notch! Thank you.

Dear God, please be with the Wims family tonight. Please place Your hand on Brad's chest and ease his breathing difficulties. I pray that You will help him to relax and remain calm. Let their entire family sleep soundly tonight and wake in the morning feeling well rested. I hope that today was an anomaly and that tomorrow Brad will begin to feel better again. Lastly, I pray for continued strength, hope, and joy for all those closest to Brad - for Jenny, Zeke, Kaelyn, David, and Sandra. I thank You for allowing me to come before Your almightly throne with my requests. It's in Christ's name that I pray. Amen.
