Simon Avey


Simon Avey spent almost 4 weeks in the hospital. Click HERE for a recap of the beginning of this journey. Then skim over the rest of the posts and see how God has blessed Simon. This blog is for family and friends who have been praying faithfully for Simon.

Tuesday morning report

Simon came off the last heart med this morning and his numbers are holding (bp and heart rate). They reduced O2 by 5 percent. He is off of all antibiotics. Blood tests ruled out bacterial infection. We are not sure about viral infections yet. They started a special formula feeding into his stomach last night and today they increased the amount. His liver-enzyme count has dropped some more.

An MRI is scheduled for 4:30.

Dean is heading home today for work. Tobi and Trey are back home and into their daily routine with Grandma. Summer will stay with Simon while I get some work done from the hospital. She has some plans to redecorate the hospital room (ie: pictures of Simon).

To All of the Avey Family:
Hello from Southern California. Please know that you are in our hearts and prayers. We are so thankful for all of you and your ministry to the Fellowship. We know that, as the song says, "Prayer is the key to Heaven and Faith Unlocks the Door". We are praying for wisdom and guidance for the doctors and nurses who are treating Simon; we are praying for you as you process information and make decisions; we are praying for daily strength and rest for you; and we praise God that you are witnesses for Him and that He is the Great Physician. As always, if there is anything we can do, just let us know. Prayers will continue!

We here is Fort Myers Florida are also lifting our voices in prayer and checking daily for updates on Simon. We are also trying to be there for "Grandma" Hally Shipley as we know how hard it is to be so far away. We are keeping the faith and our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
