Prayer Request

Please say a special prayer for Luke's family tonight. They had to call an ambulance tonight because his grandfather couldn't stop vomiting blood. You may remember him--he was at church for Harper's dedication. At this point, they've had to call in a specialist because the doctors can't figure out where the blood is coming from. He's in ICU and will be transferred to Birmingham as soon as they can get him stabilized.

Papa is a ton better. He's still in ICU but the bleeding has stopped. He'll have some tests tomorrow to see exactly why he's been bleeding. He still needs your prayers--he's in his mid-80s so everything tends to be serious.

What is his name?

Earl Lockhart--if tonight goes well, they said he could come home tomorrow.

Is he doing any better? Did he get to come home? We are praying!

There's been a setback. He's passing some blood clots in his urine and his heart rate is irregular. He's getting no answers from the doctor and they're contemplating transferring him to UAB tonight.
