Daddy.

Do you remember my my dad started Hepatitis C treatments a few weeks ago? Week after week, he’s getting more and more of the yucky side affects–nausea, fatigue, etc. Monday night my mom had to call 911 because he had passed out and was unresponsive (or minimally responsive, anyway). The paramedics said his vitals were fine and ordered him to the doctor first thing in the morning.

The doctor is not sure if the fainting is related to the Hepatitis C.

STOP.

Whaat? What does that mean?!

Well, I’m not sure. Yesterday, the doctor ordered blood work and a CAT scan. Daddy goes for the CAT scan today at 3pm. I’m not sure what they are looking for–and I’m praying they find everything as it should be.

We already went through the whole he-is-not-going-to-make-it thing and it’s not going to happen again. It’s just not.

My sisterchickies have already started hovering and helping and loving us.ย  And even though I have never seen most of you face to face, I count so many of you as true friends, too. And I need your friendship right now! Please pray for Daddy. Pray for healing. Period. Even if you would normally never ask God for healing, would you do it now? What does it hurt to ask?

This is one of Daddy’s favorite scriptures–his self-proclaimed motto, “No High Like The Most High” comes from this passage. This is how we are praying…

Psalm 91 (I’ve inserted Daddy’s name, Darrell to make it personal…)

Darrell dwells in the shelter of the Most High [and] will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

Darrell will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

Surely he will save Darrell from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.

He will cover Darrell with his feathers, and under his wings Darrell will find refuge; his faithfulness will be Darrell;’s shield and rampart.

Darrell will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.

A thousand may fall at Darrell’s side, ten thousand at his right hand, but it will not come near Darrell.

Darrell will only observe with his eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.

If Darrell will make the Most High his dwelling–even the Lord, who is his refuge–then no harm will befall him, no diaster will come near his tent.

For he will command his angels concerning Darrell to guard him in all his ways; they will lift up Darrell in their hands, so that he will not strike his foot against a stone.

Darrell will tread upon the lion and the cobra, he will trample the great lion and the serpent.

“Because Darrell loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him’ I will protect him, for he acknowledge s my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him’ I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver Darrell and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation.”

    This book has some good information on hepatitis and may help your dad. Might be worth checking into. As always double check sources and with doctors:)

    The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

    If you are interested in buy sex pills you will be pleased to know you can do it online. This means that you don’t have to feel self-conscious about buying them over the counter, and you don’t need to discuss your condition with your doctor as a prescription is totally unnecessary to purchase herbal supplements. You can order online and have your pills shipped to you in a discreet, plain wrapped package. No one apart from you will know what you have ordered.

    I comment whenever I like a article on a site or I have something to add to the discussion. Usually it is triggered by the fire communicated in the post I looked at. And after this article Daddy. | ohamanda.com. I was actually moved enough to drop a commenta response ๐Ÿ™‚ I actually do have 2 questions for you if you usually do not mind. Could it be just me or do some of the responses look as if they are left by brain dead folks? ๐Ÿ˜› And, if you are posting on other sites, I’d like to keep up with you. Would you list every one of your shared sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

    Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
