The Minister's Cat: Team Meeting and looking forward

Team Meeting and looking forward

Today was John’s team meeting. At this meeting including various care team members from GF Strong and the Powell River members by phone it was established that John’s discharge date will be May 17th. This seems to work for everyone. Those here at GF Strong feel that he will be ready to go and in PR they are confident all will be ready to receive him. We are looking forward to seeing all our PR friends again. One big hurdle for us is extended health funding approval needs to be had for all John’s equipment. Would you pray with us that approval will come in quickly so things can be ordered? In the next few weeks John needs to hire caregivers and this is a big job. Please pray that he will have wisdom in the ones he chooses.

Calm in the storm - blessings and praises

1 ATV was on the trail minutes after Johns accident. He was able to get help ASAP while Laverne was able to stay and assist.

2 The cement blocks had been removed from the beginning of the logging road so that the ambulance could back in right away.

3 The nurses at the hospital were the right ones. One worked with John and one graduated with Laverne. They were Connie and Ellen.

4 Good friends Lee & Don, Bob & Pat were at the hospital quickly.

5 Laverne was able to fly with John on the Medivac helicopter as this is unusual.

6 In vancouver Beth Sykes a Cascades church friend was coming on shift on ICU after a week in Mexico.

7 Tom Freeman a friend was in town to Visit John the first day.

8 The many prayers and help. Those who have helped by taking DVBS, feeding cat, gathering belongings, (and bringing them down), and getting the bikes home.

9 Karen from 100 Huntley St called out friend Patricia and said she sensed that a close friend needed prayer.

10 Sister Eleanor was able to get a quick flight and be there before surgery.

11 John was able and ready to get a tracheotomy in good time instead of days or weeks later.
