information.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><< Today Fred's MRI was finally read and they
are now saying that he did in fact suffer a mini stroke. They plan to have him
begin speech therapy soon. He has not had any more extreme episodes, for which
we are thankful. When he speaks slowly he is completely understandable, so he
will jsut need to be patient as he tries to communicate.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><< We hope that since there is now a
diagnosis they will send him home soon; he definitely has "hospitalitus".
However, during this time in the hospital he has been able to witness to many
folks, and he has met several nurses who are regular listeners of our radio
station, Radio Luce.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial><< We thank so many of you who have written,
assuring us of your love and prayers. We are humbled to know we have such a
wonderful team of prayer suporters. Yesterday I decided to take my laptop to the
hospital so Fred could read all of your notes. I am sorry if I could not answer
each one of you, but I know you understand. When Fred is laid up I am even more
aware of how much he does in one day. I am not as efficient as he is in all of
the daily tasks.</FONT></DIV>
