lift us up

yesterday in the afternoon my stomach wasn't feeling good... by the time i went to bed, i had gone to the bathroom 3 times and by the time i woke up i had gone another 3 times. i was exhausted in the morning... we then got a call from our helper saying she had to take her husband to the hospital. he's been having problems with his blood pressure and they thought he was having a heart attack or something... pain all night long. so today i was a little weak with A... on top of that i had to go and take care of our visa paperwork. it was a pretty intense morning, although just two hours of having to take care of it... when we got home mid morning, we plopped in our entertainment room and watched "bedtime stories". i got some crackers in me and pocari sweat (japanese version of gatorade). i haven't gone to the bathroom so that's good. one day of this is enough for me. in the middle of the night when i was in so much pain in the bathroom (sorry too much information), i was praying for myself, but also asking the Lord to bring me to mind to as many people as He could so i don't have to be sick for long. i don't know if you were reminded of me yesterday, but if you were and prayed for me... thank you so much!!! i'd also like to hear from you if the Lord lead to you pray for me particularly yesterday. please e-mail. thanks.

please pray for our helper and her husband. this has happened before and i know they are scared of him possibly dying, although none of the doctors say that... just pray for his health, but also for them to come to know Jesus, for He is the great healer.

short update for now...
