Crummy Day #2
Paul had a rough night last night. His stomach was very upset most of the night. Although, I think the patch has helped with his pain. Leigh and Paul are in FW tonight. The goal is to treat the fungal infection, manage pain and get radiation set up. Paul is as sick as I have ever seen him right now. It's always difficult to watch your child suffer. Nothing makes it seem worthwhile, and it is heartbreaking to behold. Faith, however, requires that you trust in Him when you cannot understand what you perceive. That's where we are. Pray as you always do. (-:

Our hearts are hurting as we lift you up in prayer, but trusting in our Faithful Father to strengthen and give you the endurance that you need for tonight, tomorrow, and the days after. We are praying for Paul to have a more restful night and for wisdom for the doctors and nurses caring for him. Love, The Terrell Family
Lord, be tangibly near to Terrill and Leigh today as they make decisions with Paul's doctors and as they minister to a suffering child. Lord, You know it is hard to watch Your children suffer. Comfort their hearts, please, and encourage them with Your presence.
Be with Paul and strengthen his body, please. Help him combat the nausea and infection and relieve his pain. Be with his doctors and inspire them with effective therapies. As always, Father, we ask you to heal him. We thank You for his life and his example.
Be with Jack and Whit, too, Lord. Help them to grow up strong in body, mind, and spirit. We know that you will use this experience to grow them into compassionate, faithful men who will be useful in Your Kingdom. Sustain their joy.
Father, we do thank you for the lessons of faith and perseverance we learn during trying times, but You are the only source we look to for health and salvation in this life and the next. We pray, always, for healing for Paul.

I know this is easy for me to say, but hang in there. One day at a time. We are praying for your family every day.

Praying fervently for that precious boy. My heart aches to think of him hurting, and it breaks just as much to think of you having to suffer as he hurts. Praying for his healing, that he start feeling better, that the doctors know just how to get him over this hump, and that your hearts be peaceful. Love to you all.
Tell Paul I said "Yo," and that I'm thinking about him!
Yo
"Jesus knows me, this I love!"
Keeping you in our prayers,
Jack and Janice
We love you, Paul, and we are praying for you and your family!
Love,
Your Sunday School friends
