focusing on Jesus...
Please continue to pray for Keith. This battle is a long one but we cannot forget to pray for Keith. Continue to fight with him through your prayers. Today marks 2 months since he was admitted to Torrance Medical Center. It's been an amazing journey as we see Keith hopeful and focused on Jesus through all the trials and hardships he's been through. Yet, this road to full recovery continues - now with a totally alert mind and a body that is slowing getting back into shape. Pray for God's continuous protection over Keith's heart as he's bound by the four walls of the hospital room. Pray that he'll be willing to receive speech therapy. He's been reluctant to receiving speech therapy as well as talking since Sunday. We really want to see him transfered to an acute rehab program soon, but he needs to keep fighting hard.
Items of praise:
-Keith is eating well! The nurses or visitors help feed him, but he's eating really well.
-He took a shower today, with the help of two therapists. After more than 2 months, he finally took a real shower.
-He continues to keep his humurous spirit by laughing and smiling.
As a reminder - we want to encourage you to keep sending your love through emails and visits. Please write only words that will encourage and strengthen him and of course, to make him laugh. May the Lord bless you to speak God's heart to Keith...thanks.

Hi Keith! I just wanted to say, "Keep fighting, brother!" It may be difficult to see right now, but God has brought you so far. I have a friend who knows someone who also had SJS. When I share with her how you are progressing, she is amazed at what's been happening. God truly loves you and is doing amazing things with and through you! I also wanted to share with you the fact that my family has been in continuous prayer for you since news of your condition reached us two months ago. My 3-year-old daughter, Faith, never forgets to include you in her prayers. Because she has an uncle named Keith, we've had to differentiate between the two of you by calling you "Brother Keith." She prays daily, "Let Brother Keiff be well and not be sick." We can't wait until the day when we can tell her, "Honey, God answered your prayers and Brother Keith is no longer sick. He is out of the hospital. Why don't we say 'Thank You, God, for answering our prayers!'?" God bless you, Keith. I can't wait to see you again and listen to your testimony.
