TRIPLETS 6/7/04 EMAIL.......URGENT!!!!!!!!!!

Kirk & Kim got grave news today from Katelyn and Kendra's doctors.  Both
girls are in renal failure and the doctors refuse to do dialysis because of
how serious their conditions are with everything else they are struggling
with.  The doctors and nurses are growing uncomfortable with taking any
more extreme measures to save these little girls.  They give them only a
couple of more days to live.  If ever we needed prayer, now is the time!
Please, please, please keep praying for this family and especially these
little girls.  I know it is not in God's plan for this family to have these
little girls grow up in suffering, but it could be in His plan to heal them
so that every day of their lives will be a testament to His powers of
healing.  Please pray for His will to be over this family and please hope
that means we get to watch these little girls jumping rope someday.

As for Kiersten... she is is still struggling, but is stable at this time.
She's not out of the woods but she is improving.  Her heart valve problem
has been corrected through medicine.  She's still having trouble with
remembering to breathe though.

Kim & Kirk need strength to endure this rollercoaster ride.  They spend
much time daily just crying.  All of the news from the medical world is
dire and bleak.  They need uplifting.  Kim is struggling with pain from her
C-section.  She is having to sleep in a recliner because she can't bear to
sleep lying on her back, or on her side.  Kirk is also suffering from
severe back pains.  He hurt himself remodeling the kitchen a month or so
ago and sleeping in the hospital cots and the stress of the situation has
irritated that injury.

I am convinced that all of our prayers have carried this family this far
and we can still help.  Kim was telling me that the other night Katelyn was
in distress at the hospital.  Her vital signs were going haywire and many
doctors and nurses were working on her.  Kendra's nurse was on the opposite
side of the room and she began to pray for Katelyn.  As she was praying,
Katelyn's vital signs normalized.  When the nurse went back to caring for
Kendra, Katelyn began to crash again.  She started praying again and
Katelyn came back to normal.  The nurse said it reminded her of Moses and
how when his arms were raised, the Israelites were winning, but whenever he
lowered his hands, they were losing the battle.  Finally, the nurse cried
out to God and said, "God, you need to have someone else focus all their
prayers on Katelyn, because I have to care for Kendra" and then Katelyn's
vitals came back to normal and stayed that way for the remainder of the
night shift.

When Moses grew tired during the battle and could no longer hold his hands,
he had to have Aaron and Hur hold up his hands so the Israelites could win
the battle.  We have to help hold up the hands for these little girls so
they can win this fight for their lives.  Please keep your prayers going
for these little girls.  Please get everyone one you know, whether you know
if the pray or not, ask them to please uplift this family.

Thank you once again,
In His precious love,

Jennifer
