Prayers Needed

My 93-year-old grandfather flew up from Florida Thursday to visit some of his great-grandchildren that he has yet to meet (including his namesake: John Albert Peach) despite his care giver's advice not to travel. He had a wonderful half a day with them on Thursday, however things went down hill after that. Thursday night he was rushed to the hospital because of a Stroke and continues to be there today (Monday). The good news was that if he had not been up here when he had the stroke then in all likelihood he would not have been discovered until it was too late, and the travel in no way exacerbated the stroke (in fact it probably started prior to the travel) He continues to - slowly - recover however the amount of motion he will retain on his left side remains to be seen. Frequent trips to the hospital have been our standard operating procedure as of late and my thoughts about blogging are few.

While I take this blogging mini-hiatus I ask you to keep my Grandfather in your prayers. Thanks.
