Monday afternoon update

Lindsay has developed an infection in her chest and is now on antibiotics. This means that she will now have to be on the inactive list for a transplant until the infection clears up. We are not certain how this affects that the Berlin heart. We will keep you updated as we hear information.

Thanks for praying!

Hello, why can't she have antibiotics? Would they weaken her heart more? I hope the infection clears up soon. Thank you for the updates even though I am sure you are all so very busy.

We're sending a big hug from old time friends to hopefully comfort you all and to tell you how much we hurt for all your going through. With love Uncle Bill and Aunt Carol Kern

This is a verse that has brought us much comfort and one that keeps coming to mind as we read Lindsay's updates..."Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified, do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."  Joshua 1:9We are praying!Love, Scott and Jill Brown in KY

Hey you guys,

I was checking the update again to see how things were progressing and since there is no news, I thought I'd encourage you with parts of this song by Chris Tomlin titled "The Everlasting God".

It's a beautiful song and everytime I sing it my heart and soul are encouraged to keep remembering.

"Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord...

"Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our Strong Deliverer

You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won't grow weary
You're the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord...

Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our Strong Deliverer.

He is our HOPE and He is our STRONG DELIVERER.

Stephanie

Hey... it was good to see you all today. I called my mom's cousin Dave after I left. He said there's a hosting program through Park Street, he's going to talk to some people and get back to me. I'll be in touch, we're all praying for you!

Hi all-

We've been checking in all day- praying for dear Lindsay with this infection. The ups and downs are tough- it's a good reminder as you are in Boston today that this is a marathon and there will be days you will feel as if you have hit the wall! We're praying for all of you and are so thankful for the many others that write notes telling how they are praying for you too! May God fill you with His strength- and all of us on the support team are going to keep on praying for all of you.

Joshua 1:9 is a verse that has come to mind several times today for you- Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.

Love and prayers tonight to you....

Aunt Sharon and Uncle Matt

Bill & Family,
I know first hand how it feels to be on this "roller coaster" ride. I also KNOW who is still in control when things seem so out of control. Just keep the faith. He will see you all the way through. Matt. 17:20.... Your sister in Christ, Linda Lazenby (Bill Pruitt's Aunt)

Good Morning - I am praying for this latest development. I also have a friend contacting some family in the Boston area about the possibility of some housing - at the very least it will mean more christians will be praying!

We want you to know that we have been reading your blog and praying for you, but even though I've(Shelly) tried to put comments on here, it hasn't worked, so hopefully this time it will! We praise God for the support that you have around you and pray for His peace to rule in your hearts. We are praying for Lindsay's healing and for your daily strength to face each day trusting your little one to the God who loves you with an everlasting love that will NOT let you go!

Hi Jon, Laura, and Tanner ~ Joe and I are praying enthusiastically and all throughout the day for Lindsay. Please let us know when we can help with anything... This morning as I was driving to work and thinking of you, I thought of the Psalms - the Lord's mercies are new every morning. Each day He is the one who generously gives strength and wisdom enough for the day's trials and joys. Keep leaning on His everlasting arms. We love you guys and we'll keep praying for the best possible outcome! Love, Joe & Lydia

Hello Lindsay's family,
We are kept abreast of your sweet cherub via Pam Nyatsambo. Please know we are keeping you ALL in prayer and remember: If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it.
Happy moments, praise God.
Difficult moments, seek God.
Quiet moments, worship God.
Painful moments, trust God.
Every moment, thank God.
I feel that the above helps whenever in doubt...

GOD Bless you all,
The Nazarian Family, Newmarket, NH.
