Life is Precious - Updated with Picture


This morning brought one of those stark and painful reminders that life is so very precious and that we should treasure every moment with those we love.

Please pray today for Katie (not our daughter, but a friend of mine from college and wife to a lifelong friend of ours). She had a brain aneurysm that burst this morning at 5am. They have done surgery and stopped the bleeding, but the doctors do not hold out much hope for her. In addition to a 10 day old son, Davey and Katie have two daughters, ages 7 and 5.

Please pray for them.

And be sure those who are precious to you know that you love them!

Update at 12.30pm:
Katie is out of surgery and is responding to voice and touch stimuli. She is still in critical condition, but the doctors are excited about her response.
