I just spoke with Dave this morning (8:00 AM. Our time, 7:00 AM. His time) Monday, February 11, 2013.  He is doing well.  The swelling is going down.  He says he feels great and already this morning he has been sharing the Gospel of Christ with everyone God gives him to speak to.  He has made known to all of the nurses that there will be, “No more shots given!”

I was greatly encouraged that the sunshine that is always so brightly manifest in his demented little personality has returned full strength.  Talking to him this morning was an absolute joy. It was like pulling the curtains back and experiencing the sunshine of God’s love flood over both of us as we chatted.

He is hoping to be out of the hospital today, but is not at all sure that this will happen.

Please keep him in your prayers.  We will keep you updated.

In Christian love,
