Thanks Sunnydaze, my Dad is doing better, steadily improving (knock wood). He's actually calling me and other people again now, which is a sign of his increasing strength and lucidity. My Dad looooves to talk on the phone. He's expected to be in the hospital for awhile yet, but that's good, because we don't want him out of there until the infection is gone.

Cindy, wow, I just commented on your thread about how much I like this prayer. Thank you for sharing it here, too, and for your encouragement. And especially after just getting out of the hospital yourself. Good work.
