Hospital Food and Hope!

Some more great news on this Saturday evening. Kevin was awake and doing well today. He continued to talk with JD and the family, cracked some jokes, and ate a meal...and even managed to comment that it was not so tasty, which is a great sign! (Though we are hoping he gets some better meals down soon!) 

Some of the sedation drugs are still wearing off, so his interactions are still somewhat colored by the medications. We're still asking for prayer as the drugs become metabolized and a clearer picture of his prognosis can be seen. As we look towards the next few days of tests and continued recovery, we're very hopeful, and extremely grateful at this fast and strong progress. 

Please continue to pray for continued healing, for rest and recovery for Kevin and the family, and for wisdom for the physicians. To God be the Glory!

We will continue praying fervently for Kevin's recovery and for comfort and peace for you and the children. What a shock to learn of this . . . I'll be sure that Mary and Knox know about this so we can all join the circle of those holding you up in prayer . . .

He is worthy! I am preaching from Revelation 5 today. It is a great picture of Our God reigns. Give Kevin our love.

Mimi and I PRAISE GOD for his protection for Kevin and the entire Bartkovich family. Please let us know what we can do to assist with the kids or with any travel help as needed. We also have plenty of room to house folks as needed. Just let us know.
With much love and prayers. Mimi and Rick
