Prayer Praise Report for Tony Callies and Terry Newman:
On Wednesday, Dec. 10th, Tony Callies went to Pulmonary Doctor to check his lungs and actually he is doing fine. Didn't really need to see him in the first place. The reason we came to this doctor was the question I asked his Cardiology doctor how would she know if Tony is completely free from the blood clots since last year he went to ER for that. The medicine he takes was about Pradaxa. That is when the doctor gave details that we didn't know about. Pradaxa does not cure blood clots. Pradaxa only prevent the cells from multiply the blood clots and it allows the nature to heal the blood clots itself. So now it seems he doesn't have blood clots as long as he keeps taking Pradaxa to prevent it. So that was the information we needed to hear and didn't know that for one whole year!
About Tony's flu that he had last week, I actually thought he had a problem and I was ready to take him to ER, but Tony kept telling me to wait one more day to make sure. Each day, he seems better and better which I was relief. I also use Pulse Oximeter for testing with finger to check his oxygen measure to make sure he was above 92 and etc.
Then Tuesday morning on Dec. 9th, I discovered Tony had shingles so I called his family doctor immediately to see if he could get his medicine right away. That same morning, the Doctor checked on Tony and prescribed medicine for him. What's amazing was that Tony did not have any pain and it did not show any raw spots. It seems to be dried up. The doctor was surprised. Most shingles were painful, but Tony did not feel any pains. I believed your prayers must have done that.
Lastly before the doctor left, he teased Tony said that he will see him for 23 more years. Tony responds, "No way will I live that long. Give me a break!." They laughed and then doctor said, "See me next year for routine check up." Then the nurse came in and she took the time to explain what Tony had was actually flu because last week many people and children got the flu and it was going around. She explained that it was probably why Tony was exposed to the flu at that time. Also that it wasn't really his body that had problems as we had assumed. It was flu so naturally, Tony is okay.
So I believe your prayers kept Tony from getting too sick which usually last two weeks. Instead he got better after five days and much better two more days later. Today, he said, "Boy, I really felt good and much better. I appreciated the prayers very much."
Terry Newman had high cholesterol level which made him passed out. The doctor gave him medicine to keep the cholesterol on lower level. What I am thankful for that it happened at the hospital when the nurse was there to help him right away. God knows how to take care of His people. So thank you for your prayers!

#35 Dec 10 Report and Prayer Requests
Romans 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose."
I like to share this: "We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose" Romans 8:28, The Amplified Bible.
This verse greatly encourages us, God's children when we must endure suffering in this life. God will bring good out of all affliction, trials, persecution, and suffering. The good that God brings about is conforming us to the image of Christ and most important bringing about our glorification (Rom. 8:29).
12/7/14 Pauline Braddy: We had been praying for her since she went to the hospital and nursing home for rehab exercise. She has improved a lot to where she could move around. She is on dialysis machine for kidneys' purifying three times a week. She moved into Assistant Living Apartment with two bedrooms so her husband, John Braddy could moved in with her. They will put their house for sale in January 2015. John who is in his 80's was not able to take care of Pauline if she returned to their original home. They were blessed that all things went well with the help of their two daughters. Dorothy
Janet Memenga: She had two knee surgeries at two different times last October and November. We had been praying for her. She was able to walk much better and she lost some weight. She looks wonderful and was thankful for your prayers. She still needs prayer for complete healing from discomfort sometimes in her knees. Dorothy
Bill Eckstein, Ruth's husband: Bill was getting weaker since he had to be put on oxygen for 24 hours a day since few months. He has difficulty in getting up. Ruth is doing fine considering her age. Their daughter, Kay and Jack, her son-in-law lives with them and that was a blessing to Ruth and Bill. Dorothy
Pastor Terry Newman of Normal Deaf Church: On Saturday, Dec. 6th, Pastor Terry, Suzy, Janet and Judy went together to travel from Bloomington to Peoria which is about 45 minutes drives to visit a deaf friend who were deeply depressed for the lost of his best buddy friend. After the visiting time, the three ladies stayed on to visit while Terry came out to sit down for a rest. Instead he passed out and hit his back neck to where he fell. The nurse who happened to be there took immediate care of Terry and put him with a lot tests to find out what cause the problem. He had to stay in the hospital while three ladies came home. Suzy, his wife went to visit him last Sunday, Dec. 7th to find out the results. Please pray for Terry. Dorothy
Tony Callies: He had been sick with running nose from Dec. 3rd through 6th. After much rest, he seems to be improving very slowly. He worked some on Monday at Taco Bell and realized he isn't "out of the wood" yet. He was suppose to see Doctor to check his pulmonary lungs, but they didn't contact interpreter so it was postpone until Wed. Dec. 10th at 1 pm. Please pray for Tony that he gets his energy back. Thank you. Dorothy
