Rick just called from the hospital and asked that we update everybody on Isabel's current condition. There was a little bit of a momentary crisis this afternoon when it appeared that she wasn't maintaining her stats well (which I assume refers to things like blood pressure, pulse and respiration rates). It was determined that the source cause was related to the respiratory concerns that Rick referenced in his update this morning.
The staff brilliantly intervened and have stabilized the situation for now; Rick reports that Isabel is resting peacefully. But certainly the situation was tense and a bit unnerving, so both he and Mary are asking that we all now focus our prayers toward this area of Isabel's respiratory normalization--it is a crucial next step in a twisty path toward recovery.
14 For this reason I kneel before the Father, 15 from whom every family[a] in heaven and on earth derives its name. 16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. 20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. Ephesians 3:14-21
