Friday evening 15th Jan

We have been with Joel this evening and he is in good hands. The neurological ward is run tightly with minimal visiting rights to numbers and time allowed at the bed side. The other thing they require from visitors is not to speak to Joel while he is sleeping so as to give minimal brain stimulation. It all sounds good to us. The staff there just want him to sleep as the body starts healing. Joel is very relaxed and sleeping well, breathing well and responding (little things) when required. Again we want to thank God for what he is doing as a response to people’s prayers. He is controlling his temperature and not twisting his hands.

Dear Robertsons
Just got onto your blog, it was great to know what's going on. We are praying for you all.

A verse

' Ah Sovereign God, you made the heavens and the earth with your outstretched arms and your mighty hand. Nothing is too hard for you.'

From Matt, Suzie, Grace, Lucas and Meg Finnigan

Thank you so much for sharing with us like this - these postings are an awesome read - I've usually got tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat but my heart is singing because its so obvious that God is at work - in Joel, in your family and in all the people who are following Joel's progress and praying for his recovery.

We wait in hope for the Lord
he is our help and our shield
In him our hearts rejoice
for we trust in his holy name
May your unfailing love rest on us O Lord
even as we put our hope in you.

bless you
