A number of people have expressed confusion about Andrew's condition. Is he better, worse, going nowhere? It seems that we have shared all the progress and encouraging news possible on this blog while neglecting to say that his condition remains very serious. It is still a battle for his life at times. Recent complications are mainly from being bed-ridden for so long - kidney stones, urinary infection, skin rash from medication, etc... They are treatable, but they slow his recovery and weaken his body as time and medicine are spent trying to figure out the problem instead of working toward physical rehabilitation. We do not want Andrew to lose strength of mind and heart as he waits for a chance to move forward again. The quality of Andrew's life will never be the same, but we do not want it to be an unbearable quality of life for him, even today.
If the Lord desires Andrew to live on, please pray that His mercies in preserving Andrew's quality of life would increase greatly. Andrew needs renewed strength from Him whose mercies are new every morning. As always, his condition is wholly dependent upon the Lord. It remains a mystery what God has planned for Andrew, and as his family, we simply thank Him that today is another day with our dear son, brother, grandson, friend.
