Jan had doctor appointment today (Monday the 8th) and he is having her keep on her defibrillator until their next appointment November 4th when they will do an echocardiogram to see what her Ejection Fraction is (percentage of heart function). Then the next appointment is set for the 8th of November when she will know the results showing "you are good" or time for surgery to get a permanent ICD.
He is recommending she not be alone too often...especially during her exercising.
She can surely use some ESA love and support with more cards, emails and many prayers ,

“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes
in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is
doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so
on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But
presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and
does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is
that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of -
throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up
towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little
cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it
Himself.”
― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“The Magi in my life have always surprised me.
They have often been people I initially felt I had nothing in common with.
Sometimes I didn’t even like them. But they came bearing gifts. Of wisdom or
acceptance. One or two came to give me a kick in the pants… and some left as
suddenly as they came. They returned to the respective homelands or continued
on their own journeys. I miss some of them… But we all have to find out way
toward what ever miracle awaits us. And to perform miracles, when it is in our
power to do so. Maybe the most important question is: How so I serve the Magi
for others? How generously do I give my gifts – and not just to the obvious
recipients in my life? How far out of my way do I go to recognize and pay
homage to miracles? Not very far some days. But on good days, just far enough!

IC Chaplain's Report
August 4, 2019
Every major faith has a call to prayer, whether it is the ululating melody of the Adhan being called out by a muezzin from the mosque five times a day, the pealing of bells from church towers, the sharp sound of the Jewish shofar or the exotic timbre of gongs at Hindu and Buddhist Temples. These calls encourage their believers to set aside the stress and trials of daily life and focus on what can help lift them and encourage them to be their best self. I encourage you to take time this week to set aside the worries of daily life and using whatever “call to prayer” you chose to focus on what can uplift you.

IC Chaplain’s Report
May 2019
Richest wealth is wisdom.
Strongest weapon is patience
Best security is faith.
Most effective tonic is laughter.
And surprisingly all are free.
“May the stars carry your sadness away,
May the flowers fill your heart with beauty,
May hope forever wipe away your tears,
And above all, may silence make you strong.”
Chief Dan George

Rita Baker, Beta Beta Andover, daughter had total knee surgery Monday, May 6.
Please pray for pain relief and a fast and complete healing. Thanks!
I guess it is time to finally put the Hansens on the prayer chain.
Yesterday, Eldon was terribly hateful, not physically, but mentally. I pray this isn’t starting a new stage with his Alzheimer’s because it has always been fairly peaceful. I see him several (at least four or five) times a week. Our son saw him Saturday and finally realizes how bad he is, he thought I was exaggerating. His body is really strong, but his mind is almost gone. If you have any extra prayers, please pray for little one for me, as it is really hard seeing him this way so often. He is in really good care, so I don’t have to worry about that.

Margaret Shook, Chi Epsilon, has an update on Walt and is requesting prayers for Walt. He was able to have chemo even though his blood levels were not good. His platelets were 77 and they want it to be at least 100. Since being on steroids he has developed steroid diabetes and is now on insulin. His blood pressure was 81 over 51, so they gave him saline which did make it improve. He has discontinued his blood pressure meds for the time being. His main problem seems to be extreme fatigue and shortness of breath. They are asking for prayers that the effects of the chemo will lessen and he will be feeling better soon. Thank you for your continued prayers for Walt and Margaret.
