prayer update 091212

Dad's still off the mechanical ventilator after two days, for which we are thankful. The attending nurse and others have pointed out dad's fever, his heavy breathing and lots of phlegm, and his higher blood pressure in the past two days (though still in the normal range). There's also still some red color from dad's brain secretion.

We pray for dad's fight against pneumonia, for his blood pressure to stabilize, and his ability to absorb the excess secretion from his brain.


父親已兩天不需要用呼吸機了，我們感謝天父。當值護士和其他人均留意到父親有發燒，呼吸很重而且有很多痰，過去兩天他的血壓也屬於高，雖然還是在正常的水平。 他的腦分泌物還是有點紅色。

我們祈求父親可戰勝肺炎，他的血壓可以穩定下來，和他能自行吸收腦内多餘的分泌物。
