Here a quick update about Davi! The surgery for the urinary stoma was successful, but afterwards his intestines didn´t want to start up again. He couldn´t eat or drink anything, and whenever he tried, it would come back up. This lasted nine full days. He lost quite a few pounds and became very weak. But he stayed in good spirits.

Hundreds of people prayed for him, and his hospital room is decorated with lots of get well cards. Whenever there was a little emotional dip, he had his daddy’s shoulder to lean on!
If everything progresses well, he should be released from the hospital in the next few days and will be able to recover at home, which will take another four weeks, the doctor told us.
We would like to thank everyone who has stood with us in prayer, has come to visit, and has sent cards, emails and messages. We have felt carried by the love and faithfulness of so many people and especially by our heavenly Father.
You have given your entire lives serving others. Now we are thankful to give a small portion of this back in prayer.
ReplyDeleteI am very glad to hear that he is doing better. My sister and I prayed for him. I read your book, "A Cry From the Streets" and it is very neat to be able to pray and stay updated after reading your book! We will continue to pray. =)
