January Update

Just thought I ( Elaine ) would give you all an update on our current state.

Dave had kept a fairly even existence since Christmas until last week, when the now familiar pain in the rightside of his chest heralded the onset of another bout of pneumonia. This was treated with antibiotics and appeared to be improving, however it brought chest pain and a general lowering of Dave's well being and appetite as well as vomiting. It was a rerun of the 'bad' week that we had in December which resulted in restarting the steroids with good results. So this morning in discussion with our GP we have made the same decision i.e. to have another course of steroids.

Please pray with us that this will produce an improvement for Dave's comfort.

We heard yesterday that Besi has been granted a year's visa, for which we thank God.

Ruth, Maki and Amelia will be able to move into their flat on Feb 1.

Steve has been 'chilling out 'with us this past week which has been good but returns home to Worthing tomorrow and will act as chauffeur for Miriam's arrival on Feb 2. Besi is expecting to arrive Feb18 and mini Gorrea March 7 - British Airways may be more dependable date wise in this instance !

So as you can see we are in for a few weeks of comings and goings. Please pray for peace in it all.
Thank you for all your suppport and love .
