Hello everyone! Update on my dad: He is still healthy (and he is going to stay that way), he is off dialysis, passed 2.4 litres of urine yesterday. Our new goal now is 3 litres (doctors orders). He will have to go under a slight anaesthetic for a procedure to clean a wound on his head (the size of my palm), from all the lying down and not moving for 7weeks. So please pray for his body to be stable and strong, luckily it is not a long procedure. Later on they might do a skin transplant to cover the wound as it is quite nasty, but we pray that it recover by itself. His infection count is coming down - still not 5 like we want it, so we pray for it. THEN the most important of it all, he thought hes only been in hospital for 78hours so far, he also didnt know what happened, so today I told him that its in fact been 7 weeks so far and God delivered him, he should now just do his part which is to eat the jelly, custard, soup and porridge and drink water, juice and tea - but because he hasnt eaten with his mouth for 7weeks, his stomach cramps when eating food so now he doesnt want to eat but after a nice talk with him, he said he will try. As for the physio - he sits on the edge of the bed with his feet down on the ground but he still cant hold a spoon, or write and walk on his legs as he doesnt have the strength in muscle anymore to carry the action through, it is frustrating to him. I did talk to him and I think he is now motivated to try his best at physio even though it hurts, he understands why it hurts now. I ask all of you to please pray for his muscle to come by, we know they will just like his kidneys did, and also for him to not be restless but have peace and strength to control his movements so that he can come home, because as far as him being ill - thats not in the equation anymore. He is healthy but being 65 and in bed for 7 weeks straight does take a toll on any persons body so PLEASE pray for his recovery and stand in agreement with me as I ask and thank in the name of Jesus that my dad Isaac Kruger WILL walk before December. We work and pray with goals and know in Gods timing it will manifest together with our faith. - 3 litres of urine output - no restlessness, anxiety, discomfort - muscles to come alive again - the procedure to clean his wound will go well and it will be God touching him through the doctor In Jesus name, I ask and thank You Amen
