Dennis is continuing to have problems with the right side of his heart. He was shocked by his defib another 3 times during the night. Although he is not getting worse, he is not making any progress. He's liver is now failing.
We are still hopeful that he will come through this but we are starting to have some very difficult conversations with the medical staff. We are seeking God's guidance through this process.
We ask, only if you are able, to fast and pray over the next 12 hours.
Thank you,

I will begin my fast now and pray
Eunice, I'm so sorry this has happened... im praying so hard for dennis, and all of his family and friends. He is an amazing amazing man who has changed me for the better in the short time I've known him. His faith in God has caused my faith to grow. He's a fighter and im keeping up hope along with you guys. Please let me know if you need anything, I live in the area and am available to help in any way over the next few days.

i'm going to start my fast now, pray later (after work).
Dennis, Know that we are all still with you. Our lives strongly sense the struggle you are living in. Many hearts find new ground with God because of your affliction. Relationships between person and God that had grown dusty are renewed and freshened up. We are determining ourselves toward the one who made each of us and He has purposes that we can not see yet we know He is with each of us and He clearly understands the connection between all of us and the heavenly places. We put our trust in Him. Jeff N
I am so sorry to read today's blog, eun. please know that we will be steadfast in our prayers for Den and the rest of the family. We will be also praying for discernment. The picture that I continue to see is of the family and Den being carried by the strength of an eagle.
We love you all very much.
Eunice,
Know that we are praying fervently for you and,of course, for Dennis. Even though we only met him, a few times, our hearts are with you all, and feel for you and all that you are going through, all that poor Dennis is experiencing. Keep leaning on Jesus; only His strength can be enough for you right now. We will keep on approaching the Throne of Grace on his behalf. We love you and want to help carry this burden. Thanks for keeping us all posted through the blog. I'm sure it's the last thing you want to do at times.
Alanna and Steve
Hey Dennis! We are praying for you! You're strong, & God is with you. Keep up the fight! We're looking forward to seeing you once you're allowed visitors. Thank you Eunice for the regular updates and for taking such good care of Dennis. Much love to you & your family. -Korry & Kara
Good Morning Dennis! Today is a new day. We have fasted and sought the one who has purposes for the benefit of you and each of us that we can't see or understand. You have led us to Him. I greatly thank you for that. We long for all the beauty that He has made in you to be with us again. We continue our prayers. You are leading us. Jeff N
