Prayer for Travel, Answers and Healing

Travel is always difficult, especially with kids. But traveling while sick takes things to a whole other level.

For the last couple of months, Dawn has been battling stomach issues that she just can't overcome. She has talked to lots of medical people here and she tried a variety of medications. None of it seems to work. We have gotten lots of opinions and possibilities, but nothing definitive.

We sought the prayer and guidance of those that have tested the Haitian medical system with their own medical issues. They have experienced the good and the bad. The problem is the bad could lead to major misdiagnosis or the wrong medication. It was their advice was to have it checked out in the states.

So we made arrangements and bought tickets for Dawn and three of our kids to go back to the states to seek some answers. They left this morning, but not without a major struggle. Dawn was so sick this morning that she could barely get out of bed, let alone think about getting on a plane. After much prayer and some medication, she and the kids made it to the airport and left for the states.

They have made it to Miami and will continue their journey later today. I ask you to pray for their continued safe travel. I also ask that you would pray for healing/answers to the sickness Dawn has been experiencing. She has endured a lot over the last couple of months and is worn out. Please pray for the doctors to find answers quickly as they only have a limited time there.

Pray for the kids as they travel and get to see some family and friends for the first time in 20 months. They were very excited about going back, but also sad that we could not all go together.

Pray for Cabila and I as we hold down the fort while they are gone.

Thank you for your continued prayer and support of our family as we serve in Haiti.
