Anna showed no real changes until just the last little while, when her breathing slowed a lot. She was up in the high 50's, real short panting breaths, and she dropped down into the high 30's - slower, more productive breaths. She is relatively still, resting. She has one more night of the hypothermia treatment, she's just above 35C (right around 96F).
She is having a blood transfusion right now, her haemoglobin was low, since they've been taking blood sparingly for labs, but taking it so often that she just didn't have enough left! She's getting about 200cc of O+. I pray a special blessing on whoever gave their blood that she might live, and I praise, glorify and honor the One who gave His blood 2,000 years ago that she might live.
Tomorrow they will take her off the hypothermia pad and warm her up, and cut the sedative. That's the crucial time. I don't know how long God will choose to take to heal her, but it was done at Calvary, so we're just holding on to the promise. All we can do is trust Him and rest.
Did I mention how much we appreciate all the comments, calls, prayers...?! I know there are people praying in England, Ireland, most states of the US, Canada, Israel, Africa, Australia... (more?) Thanks to everyone in Lima who are looking after Bliz, Jake, Em and Bubba. To know they are being loved is an incredible blessing.
Please pray for us during the day tomorrow.
ALL praise to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Sing with me: Halleluia, Thank-you Jesus, Lord you're worthy of all the glory, and all the honor, and all the praise.
God bless,
Richard

Dear Bro. Richard & Sis. Lael,
We are so thankful to hear the testimonies and also to hear that she is breathing more productively now. We pray there will be many new steps toward recovery after a good night and added blood. We are praising God with you and believe that all is well.
We will continue to pray for all that you mentioned. God bless you, We love you all! Hope you can really get some much needed rest too.

Psalms chapter 27
1 [A Psalm of David.] The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
13 I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
We are praying and rejoicing that a complete miracle has been done. Hold fast!

Dear Bro. Richard and Sis. Lael,
We are praying for you both and especiallly for lil Anna. Joe and I both know what you are going thru, as our daughter Meaghan had a similiar drowning experience. She and Emily are classmates. When she was 13 months old she fell in my mom's pond and we didn't even know it and we were all right there fishing. There was a fountain running in the middle of the pond so it drowned out any noise. We thought she was playing on the hill behind us with her big brother as we could still hear him laughing and playing. After a bit we didn't see her and wondered where she was, just thinking she was on the other side of the hill. Joe started to walk towards the hill to see her but the farther he went he didn't see her, just Ivan playing by himself. We thought she maybe wondered towards the barn and started to head that way. Joe was on top of the hill at that point and was facing away from the pond. He happened to glance back towards the pond, by the grace of God, and just caught a glimpse of Meaghan's brightly colored outfit out in the pond. What followed was every parents worst nightmare. When we pulled her from the pond she was completely blue and lifeless. Her lips were purple and her eyes were open and staring. Her whole body was limp like a rag doll. I tell you this horrible story to also tell you the incredible ending and the hope that I pray will encompass you. Joe started to do cpr and said she was so full of water the air didn't seem to be going in, but he kept trying. We were both crying out to God and praying He would bring her back. I knew as a Mommy that my baby was dead and I also knew God was the only one who could help. About the 3rd or 4th try she started to make a low sound and it became louder until it was a full cry. I have never heard such a sweet sound in my life. As I sat there holding her I had the most powerful feeling of peace that I have ever in my entire life felt, come over me, and I just sat there and kept praising the Lord for her. By this time the paramedics arrived and checked her out and could hardly believe she had fallen in the pond or that she was blue when we pulled her out. Her vitals checked out perfect. Our God is an awesome God and I know He is more than able to heal lil Anna!!! Sometimes we go thru trials and the valley seems so dark and our light seems so dim, but there are those you may meet in your dark valley that you would have never met had you not gone thru that dark trial. Sometimes God lets us go thru things because He knows we have what it takes on the inside (JESUS CHRIST), to make it thru! Keep pressing the battle you never know who your trial will touch and whose life will be forever changed because you let God shine thru you in your valley. We will be praying for a complete healing! Lord Bless!!!

I just want to say that being there yesterday with Richard & Lael..they have such a strong faith for their little baby girl through this trial and that was inspiring to me to see how the Lord is helping them and that we may all keep that same faith with them. Baby Anna has such a strong fight within her and each prayer is going to pull her through.
By His stripes Anna is healed!!!
The kids (yours and Mary's) all said their own prayer for Anna tonight.
Love you and here for you always,
Martha
