Henkelman Family
Today marks the end of Dave Henkelmans second week in hospital.
While progress has been made - relief from shortness of breath and less fatigue - his heart function has not yet really changed.
He is looking at several more weeks of hospitalization, three months at least of various drug therapies and not until 6 months from now will we know how far his heart will recover. This is where we appreciate your prayers:
- for the heart muscle to heal well and fully
- for protection from infection as he is so immunosuppressed

Her arthritis is getting worse and there are some homecare challenges to resolve before she can be at home permanently. Pray also for Dieter as he cares for her needs, that God would lead them to some homecare women to assist as they move forward.

Brenda McDaniel
Brenda McDaniel (update as of Jun 25th) Brenda McDaniel has now received a diagnosis of Transverse Myelitis, which is inflammation of a section of the spinal cord. She is now under the care of a neurologist and has begun treatment. Praise The Lord that a diagnosis and treatment plan was reached so quickly and that her neurologist is cautiously optimistic that the symptoms may improve.
Please pray that the treatment plan will successfully reverse the symptoms, that the nerve damage will not be permanent and that whatever has caused the inflammation in the first place will not return.

Whyte Ridge Baptist Church
Please keep Mel, Darryl and their girls in prayer as Mel is being admitted to the women’s hospital later this afternoon.
A recent CAT scan has shown that the cancer has now spread throughout her body. Numerous blood clots are also an issue along with the swelling of her legs and the danger of her spine collapsing.
Hopefully Mel’s time in the Women’s Hospital will help to get her pain and discomfort under control.
Mel will be having a blood transfusion either later today or tomorrow.
Please pray for God’s strength, wisdom, providence and felt presence as they grapple with Mel’s rapidly declining health, with determining next steps, and the needed palliative care to be provided for Mel (whether at home or the hospital).
