Hello Prayer Warriors....Bill here,
Please keep those prayers going. Erin's fever continued to spike periodically (103 this morning)and she experiences bouts of stomach pain and nausea. She hasn't been able to eat or keep down fluids very well. She's been on antibiotics for 30 hours and they are telling us it takes about 48 hours for them to really kick in. Still no word on any cause for the temp from the lab results. Erin received 2 units of blood last night and the benadryl that they gave her to help keep the hives down allowed her to sleep fairly well through all the continuous activity. When they give blood they have to check her vital signs every 15 minutes to be sure she is not having any reactions.
Yesterday I thought I was getting a fever....it turns out the air conditioning in the room quit working and was out all afternoon until 9:00 pm. Then after they came and reset the unit in the ceiling, it would not shut off. So while it was pretty toasty in the room yesterday, it is like a refrigerator this morning. Hopefully we can get both Erin's thermostat and the room's thermostat fixed today.
The sooner we can get the fever knocked down the sooner we can go home but her temp has to be in the normal range for 24 hours before they will let her go. Thanks for the continued prayers....we know God hears them and we feel such a sense of comfort knowing you are out there lifting Erin up!!
Blessings.... Bill

Erin's got a fever,
It is spiking way too high,
Why is it there at all?
Please, make it go bye-bye.
Janet's hot and cold,
Keep her healthy, too,
Make the air conditioning work,
So it's working just like new.
Keep our friends from harm,
Make them strong and brave,
As they struggle through this journey,
May they see the path you pave.
Lord we pray for mercy,
On the entire Blonshine clan,
May your arms be wrapped around them,
For we know it's in your hands.
Bless you all, as you trust in His plan.
Love in Christ,

I ran across this very old picture on the internet.

It used to hang in my Granny's guest bedroom on the pinewood wall facing the foot of the bed, and I used to ponder it at night as a child, wondering who the children were and wondering if the angel had a name.
It always gave me comfort then and reminds me now God sends his angels to surround us and watch over us, sometimes when we're on unknown paths or dangerous paths.
Lord, we lay our requests at Your Feet knowing Your yoke is easy and Your burden is lite...You will hold us up through the unknown.
Your Hands Are Mighty and You never grow weary. Comfort Erin in your own special way, the way that she needs most...you know her every need. We yearn to hear the Good New of her feeling better, her numbers going up and her going home!
Praying that Monday morning brought a better feeling Erin across the board! Glad to hear that you got to encounter your floor angel while in the hospital -what a blessing that was for you guys! We continue to pray for less pain and nausea, more positive healing, no fever and aches, sleep, comfort, peace and relaxation, and smiles and laughs among the Blonshines and their friends and family.
Prayers and Blessings,
The Cotner's
