Uncle David update

2009-03-31T15:03:00.000-07:00

Long overdue update on Uncle David. Last week was kind of scary for him. After his lab work on Monday the called him to get to the hospital his white blood count real low. Any way he had to have a series of three shots every other day for the the week. The side effects of the shots were serve chest pains and pains in the legs which made him have to use his cane to walk again. He called his pastor for prayer and we were all praying here so when he took his last shot @ 4:30 am Sunday he had no side effects and was able to go to church. He loves his church so much and has been going on Wednesday nights too! This Sunday was super special for him because too van loads of saints from Chicago came down to their services. Bro Bobby preached! He didn't know what his last name was but I am sure it was Bro Bobby Banks. The previous Sunday a Bro Lemaitre from Chicago preached. Christine didn't get to go this past Sunday but she has been going pretty regular. The saints gave her a bible and she is so excited about it and has been reading it too!
Today he was in Madison for his check up. He found out that his white blood count had been effected by one of the medications he was on. (they had discontinued it right away last week)
He has been released back to work full time and is on the calender for next week.

latest on Uncle David

2009-02-26T10:21:00.000-08:00

On Tuesday the 17th David was back in Madison for his second check up since his transplant surgery. He was hoping to get the ok to go back to work. And he did sorta of well with a 10lb. weight limit and part time restrictions. His work although desperate to have him back didn't want the liability of the weight restrictions and told him he would have to wait until he could do a full days work with no restrictions. That was a bit of a blow for him. As far as how he is doing physically he is doing great. More of meds were reduced or discontinued. Spiritually he is doing wonderful and really loves his church. The saints there love him too and are always doing something special for him. He is hoping to be able to go to Chicago for the meeting. We sure are praying that way too. One of his recent great blessings was on Sunday the 15th Christina (Daisy's oldest she is 15) went to church with him. Her very first time ever being in any church. She seemed to really enjoy it and several of the young people their greeted her warmly. She plans to go again real soon!

Trevor update: He is CA. this week for more guard training. He flies back home to Mt. Sunday and back in EMT class Monday morning.

Long over due update

2009-02-11T16:49:00.000-08:00

Bro. Ryan and Sis Melissa went to Champagne and visited Uncle David on Saturday January the 24th. The first saints he has seen!! He was so excited! They had a wonderful visit and David was so blessed and encouraged that they came. He wanted to go to church on Sunday the 25th in Bloomington (50 miles away) but was sick and had no energy. The following Sunday February 1st he did go to church and feels right at home. He was able to give his testimony and the saints all rejoiced with him. The pastor is Bro Tony Miller. The congregation is about 20 or so mostly black and they fellowship with Chicago. They are talking about and getting ready to go to Chicago's fellowship meeting. I started praying that Uncle David would be able to go too. And that a lot of saints from Carmichael will be there too that he knows. This past Sunday when he went they had Communion! That was very exciting for him.

Now for the update about Trevor. Trevor is living here with us in Montana for the time being. He is taking the EMT class up here. One of his instructors is John. He is still in the National Guard and flies back and forth to Sacramento when he has duty. His new deployment date is March 2010.

Uncle David's check up

2009-01-21T05:50:00.001-08:00

Uncle David went back to Madison yesterday for his first check up since his surgery. They removed his staples and reduced some of his meds. The doctor is really pleased at how well he is doing. He was doing labs 3 times a week and that has been reduced to 2 times a week. His next check up will be in 4 more weeks. He will be doing PT twice a week. And now that he can drive again he will be taking himself to labs and PT. He has already lost over 100 pounds!! One of his major accomplishments of this week was to write a very heart felt thank you to the donor's family. At this point they are anonymous to each other and the letter is handled through the university. If the donor's family wants contact then they can respond to the letter. I often think of the donor's family and pray for them. I keep reminding myself that in our joy of David's life being restored they lost their loved one and are in grief. What an allegory of what Jesus did for us through the death of one we can all live! Through the donor's death David can now live.

Trevor came up for Christmas

2009-01-10T15:13:00.000-08:00

Uncle David Update

2008-12-30T06:03:00.000-08:00

Recovery is going much faster than ever expected! Thank the Lord!! His kidneys are kicking in and working real good. He had what he hopes to be his last dialyses yesterday and plans are getting the pick line port for dialyses out soon. The liver is working GREAT!! They wanted him to stay in bed until a physical therapist said he was able to get it. Small problem.... no physical therapist supposedly on duty from Christmas till yesterday. Over the weekend David got tired of using a bed pan and started getting up on his own to use the room. His nurse caught him and amazingly at PT was found right away and gave him the royal nod for him to get up. So now he is up cruising the halls. Yesterday he had a bit of a setback with what I feel was over dose of insulin and his blood sugar was to low. He is not diabetic but with some of the meds he is on they were fearful that his blood sugar would get to high, so they have been giving him shots of insulin in case........ hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Anyway they give him a shot of insulin when his blood sugars are only 126. On Sunday his blood sugar was so low they gave him 1,2,3,4 orange juices with sugar to get it back up. Blood sugar finally went up and all the OJ kicked his kidneys in too! Yesterday he felt like he was not quite able to really wake up until around 7:00 pm. Foggy, fussy not real with it. Check the blood sugar awwwwwwwww low again........ Anyhow the preventive insulin seems to be more of a problem than a possible high sugar. Other than that David is doing great and tells me he expects to be getting discharged by this up coming weekend. I said. I thought you had to stay a mini um of four weeks? "David said I am on the fast track healing!" I know he looks forward to hearing from all of you so give him a call when you can. Phone in the room 1608 267 8222. Or Verizon folks 1 217 649 8179. The E-Card place is closed for the holidays and won't resume that service until 1/5/2009. Snail mail won't get there in time for the fast track discharge so give him a call. And most of all keep praying! He thanks you and I thank you for all of your prayers. God surely has been so good to us!!!!!!!!!!! What a wonderful way to end 2008 with the Strong ARM of GOD showing itself so mighty!!!!!

In ICU

2008-12-24T15:01:00.000-08:00

Yesterday was a really hard day for David he was very disoriented and thought the nurse and doctors were trying to poison him. And even Aunt Verna couldn't reason with him. The nurse thought that maybe if i talked to him it would calm him down and they rigged up a phone so I could talk to him. God really blessed and it helped. He later asked for Verna and they could untie him and seemly had no memory of what he had been acting like. Praise God!!

This picture is from today. His first eating or should I say drinking of broth and sprite.

The surgeon was in and said that his liver is doing good! The surgeon told Verna that Davids liver that they took out was the worst he had ever seen and didn't know how he had lived this long or why he was even alive. Praise God for evermore for his MERCY!!! He still has a long recovery and every prayer is greatly appreciated!

Uncle David out of surgery in ICU

2008-12-22T19:19:00.000-08:00

Uncle David came through the 11 hour surgery and is doing well. He is ICU and will be for about 4 days. The next two days are critical to see if his body will accept or try to reject the new liver. He did not have a kidney transplant too at this time. The doctors seemed hopeful that his own kidneys are already starting to kick in with the help of the new liver. The new liver was kicking in and making bile too!! He still has a tube down his throat so unable to talk but has a pen and tablet and talked to Verna that way and ordered her to go to the hotel and get some sleep. She will return to hospital at 8:00am so I will know more then. Thank y'all for your continued prayers! God sure has been good!

Uncle David in surgery

2008-12-22T05:41:00.000-08:00

Uncle David went into surgery around 6:00am mt. time. The surgery is about an 8 hour surgery. Thank y'all for praying!

Uncle David got the call for a liver!

2008-12-21T20:27:00.000-08:00

Praise God!! And please pray! Uncle David got the call around 5:30 PM Montana time that they had a liver for him. He is still on the road driving the icy freezing -16 degrees 5 hour drive from Champaign to Madison. The way I understand it he goes right into surgery soon as he gets there.

Surpirse look up!

Uncle David getting discharged from hospital

2008-12-11T15:56:00.000-08:00

Uncle David is getting discharged from the hospital today. Verna is on her way up there even as I type this. It is a long grueling 5 hour drive and there has been lots of snow. She has worked a full shift before heading up. They will stay in the comfort suites tonight and sleep in tomorrow before heading back to Champainge. The weather is supposed to be snowing and awful so please pray for them. Their insurance company wanted him out of the hospital and they had talked about putting him in a motel but he still needs some care just can't be left on his own. Then they talked a few days about putting him a rest home and yesterday that was the plan. But then the insurance wouldn't pay for the dialyses he needs 3 times a week if he stayed in Madison in a rest home. They will pay for it if he is home in Champainge. So he has it on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays and will continue at the clinic in Champainge. He is still top of the list and waiting for a liver. Pray that he will stay encouraged and faithful. He still has his Verizon cell that you can call him on 217-649-8179 or his home number is 217-352-2561. You can email him at beegwabbit@webtv.net. Or you can snail mail him at PO Box 6386 Champainge IL 61826. He loves hearing from you all. Any mail, email or phone calls is greatly appreciated. And most of all praying for him. I noticed one thing that he enjoys is to sing so I have been sending him words to songs. Yesterdays song was "Living By Faith". Y'all take your liberty and send all the lyrics God lays on your heart and scriptures too. God knows when the right liver and right time might be. One very exciting thing for him is that he will get to see new grandson David Mark born while he was in Madison that he hasn't seen yet!

Uncle David gets the next liver

2008-12-02T19:15:00.000-08:00

Yep you read the title right the very next liver that is O+ that comes in Uncle David gets!!! He has been moved to the very top of the list!! Please keep praying for him. He is very encouraged at this point but it will be a long extended stay for him in Madison. He will be staying there till one comes in and then for awhile after the surgery. He has no friends or family there with him so he greatly appreciates all letters, cards, e-cards and phone calls.

Uncle David staying in the hospital

2008-11-24T06:01:00.000-08:00

Uncle David found out on Saturday that he is going to have to stay in the hospital in Madison. They had talked about sending home for thanksgiving. His kidneys are still not functioning as much as they would like so they are finally going to do dialyses. Verna went back home yesterday and back to work today. It is very hard for them she is 5 hours away and took the cell phone with her. That means Dave can't call anyone, but he can receive calls from you on the hospital phone 608-267-8261. And of course you can still send him e-cards https://apps.uwhealth.org/ecards/ He will be spending thanksgiving all alone and is in much need of encouragement so all y'all call and write him when you can. I know it will greatly appreciated.

this is for Grandson Milio!

saying good bye to Trevor again

2008-11-21T09:59:00.000-08:00

Wednesday morning the 19th back @ Uncle Davids saying good bye to Trevor before I leave for airport. I don't know why the kid just won't move to Montana. Honestly I don't know why anyone wouldn't want to live here. I sure was glad to get home even though I enjoyed the time with my family very much.

2008-11-21T09:42:00.000-08:00

At last we get to see each other. I had planned to fly on Saturday the 15th to Campaign IL. Uncle Davids hometown where he had been in the hospital there. But, on Friday the 14th they moved to the University of Madison Wisconsin's hospital about 5 hours away. I couldn't change my ticket so I still flew into campaign on Saturday. My niece Daisy picked me up ran me by McDonald's and deposited me @ Dave and Verna's house. Sunday I spent there visiting my other brother Paul and Verna's mom Marylin and Daisy and family. Sunday night picked up Trevor from the airport. Monday morning very early we drove the 5 hours to Madison.

Back home in God's country Montana

2008-11-20T16:11:00.000-08:00

I got back into Missoula around 9:30 pm last night and home about 11:30. Uncle David had the procedure of tapping the fluid off his tummy while I was in the air. They took off 3 2 litter bottles of fluid. Wow that was a lot!! And Praise God they did it slow enough that it didn't cause him to go into a coma. 27 years ago when our mother had the same procedure done it put her into a coma for several days. I know that memory was heavy on both of our minds. Uncle Bro. David has such a peace now it is so awesome to see him and hear of his complete confidence in God. He has so many different test and procedures done that I won't enumerate them, but the bottom line is that once the final analysis is made for him to have the transplant he will be at the top of the list. And they anticipate that he will have a donor match with in a month! He still plans to be come to Montana this spring! The university web site has e-card delivery. https://apps.uwhealth.org/ecards/
please email him I know he would love to hear from you. Please keep him in your prayers that he would stay encouraged spiritual.

Uncle David Repented!!

2008-11-17T13:37:00.000-08:00

Praise God for evermore!!! Uncle David repented this morning!! I arrived here in Madison Wisconsin around 11:00 this morning. We visited for awhile and then everyone left the room but me and him. So I closed the door and said we are going to pray so I started to pray and thank God for his much mercy and asking God to help David to want to repent and rebuking any hindering spirit next thing I know David is praying out loud crying and repenting! After we prayed and cried and rejoiced a while Amy called and Uncle David got on the phone and started telling her how he had just repented. Amy was so happy she started singing theirs a new name written down in glory. They rejoiced together for awhile then we called Uncle John and David again started testifying to him how he had repented and they to rejoiced for awhile and John was at Bro Earl's so he rejoiced with them too. Please pray for him that he will stay faithful. He is having a stress test to his heart right now. They still have more test to perform to see if he is a candidate for a liver transplant. Pray for God's will.

Uncle David update

2008-11-14T11:47:00.000-08:00

In the wee hours of the morning of Saturday 11/8/8 I got a call from Aunt Verna saying that Uncle David was in the hospital in a coma and not expected to make it though the day. As most of you know he has had cirrhosis of the liver for several years now and has continued to decline. (He had just been in the hospital on 10/20/8 and had not really improved but was sent home.) He was really laboring to breath and kidneys were also shutting down. Verna decided to go ahead and start him on life support. On Monday 11/10/8 they decided to take him off of life support realizing it wasn't doing any good and that there was nothing more that they could do. With in an hour of taking him off life support he opened his eyes came out of the coma and stated asking for food and water. I stop here to thank and praise God for his wonderful mercy again extended to Uncle David!!!!!!!! Thursday 11/13/8 David and Verna were told that they were going to move Uncle David to University of Madison Wisconsin to have a liver transplant. Friday 11/14/8 he is on his way to the university. We sure do covet all your prayers for him and us. We are praying most of all for his heart (soul) transplant. I fly out to Champaign, IL. in the morning and will stay a couple of days at David and Verna's house with Trevor and Chris and family and Daisy (who i might mention is due any second with her 5th child) and family. Monday Trevor and I will go up to Wisconsin for a couple of days. I head back home on Wednesday the 19th. This picture was taken at Red Robin in Spokane in April 08 when Uncle David and Trevor were out to visit us. We don't know the date of the transplant at this time and neither do they. Waiting for the perfect match. I will keep you posted.

Paradise Bar Burned Down

2008-11-07T11:06:00.000-08:00

Historical monument the Paradise Bar burned today. We first heard the call around 7:00 AM. Dad got called out around 7:20 to stand by with ambulance.

Dad is the EMT on the right closes one to the truck.

Dad is the EMT on the right.

People across the river said they could see six foot high flames in the air.

At this point the roof caved in but no one was hurt!

It all went up really fast! Of course at this point we don't know the cause of fire.

The all volunteer Plains and Paradise did a excellent job of getting there and putting the fire out. They kept the propane tank from exploding by keeping it hosed down and saved all other property. And Praise God absolutely no injuries!

The hunting trip over the bank

2008-10-04T15:37:00.000-07:00

It's archery season for elk and deer. John and Mike headed up the blue slide a couple of weeks ago. They were in a hurry to get to their perfect hunting place before dawn. John driving the tundra came around a sharp curve to fast and went off the road over the bank. It was a 1000 feet to the river below. God choose to stop the tundra on it's front tires at a 60 degree angle. One back wheel was completely off the ground. There was nothing to hold it there and no way to cable onto anything. Mike got out and with in 10 min. someone came along and gave him a ride back to town to call me and a tow truck. It took over 2 hours for the tow truck to get there. John stayed in the truck standing on the brakes so it wouldn't continue into the river below. Of course he had his door open and ready to bail out if the tundra decided to finish the plunge. He stood on the break for a total of 3 hours waiting for help. The lessons learned where many but one is wait, pray and in God's time He will send the right person with the right knowledge and tools to help. Some times spiritually we have to wait and pray and stay out of the way while standing on the brake and holding fast our place till in God's time he sends the help. After it was towed back up on the road they looked and not even a new scratch on it.

So here goes. I have been asked by several friends why don't you just blog and get your pictures to us that way? Well I have thought of every excuse out there and finally thought I can't send a lot of my pictures to some of family and friends because they are still on dial up and I explode their mail box every time I try. So I guess I will start my blog off with some pictures of Trevor's graduation from boot camp on July 18th 2008. John and I flew into Atlanta Colby, Sheri, Skyler, Spencer and Seth met us there and together we drove over to Ft. Jackson which is in Columbia, SC. Family day was the 17th which means we could spend the day with Trevor on base but he couldn't leave base. The 13th brigade did a little reenactment of a battle for us and then all the graduates came out on the field and stood in company's and platoons. Very exciting!! Then we the families were told go fine your solider. Sis Bell and her daughter Martisa from Brimingham met us there at Ft. Jackson too! After we all found each other they had real hummers to ride in for anyone that wanted to. Then we did the tour of the barracks and saw where Trevor lived! I will be adding more pictures soon. I hope to get this blogging all firgured out soon. It is a little different than the web design I used for my web site on Yahoo.
