So Grateful for You...

People who love the Bakers enough to spend time in prayer for them, spend time with them at the hospital, spend time waiting with them in spirit for David's full recovery.

We have some good news this afternoon!

This morning, Dr. Chen visited David again and is encouraged with his recovery, and referred to this process as a swinging pendulum - a long process of going back and forth - some really good days and then possibly a swing to some hard days while David's brain heals.

Please pray that God would continue to orchestrate the inner workings of David's brain to adjust to the changes well and fully heal - that little by little all of David will be all back, all in His time.

That David would respond well as the process of healing continues - that he would respond well to even swallowing, eating, taking pills, etc.

And that the Bakers would rest in what they know to be true - that God is good, His timing is good, so good it's worth waiting for, even when the pendulums of life swing.

What a praise, that Dr. Chen is pleased with David's progress, so pleased in fact, that he said David's progress is far ahead of most who have had such invasive brain surgery.

Words and visits from Dr. Chen are comforting, enlightening and encouraging to the Bakers, so we thank God that he was able to stop by David's room this morning!

God has given Dr. Chen (obviously) a mind that is oh so smart, and a talent that is oh so unmatched, but He has also given him incredible insight into how to communicate effectively and understandably to the Bakers...you could not ask for more in a doctor, and we thank God for how he created Dr. Chen.

Hopefully this afternoon David will have a nice, comfy (well at least I hope) chair brought to his room that he will get to sit in and exercise...he is so ready to get out of that bed!! So yay! He's getting to, at least for a little while, today!

...So grateful for you.
