Hi Carol,
Please know I am praying for you and your friends.  Sometimes the blind 
thing sure gets in the way but we know the Lord loves us and He will see us 
through it all.
Huggs,
Virgie and Hoshi

> This may not sound too drastic, but Steve apparently, is absolutely

> Thursday, he just hasn't even been able to let the nurses get him up out 
> of bed.

> Our church started house groups up again a few months ago and he is our 
> leader.  Already our group has suffered a number of setbacks.
>
> There sure are many things in my life right now which make not a bit of 
> sense as my closest friends seem to be suffering very much and I'm unable 
> to reach them.

> I would certainly be glad of your prayers for Steve and also that someone, 
> somewhere, somehow, will let me in on visiting him.  (They seem to think 
> us blind folk don't need to go to see loved ones in hospital etc and crowd 
> out the visiting times so that you feel quite unable to push in.)
>
> Remember everyone, "The Lord is at hand", ever present, with us right now, 
> so go on crying out to Him for all in your hearts and see what He does!
