Dear Doris,

Please know that I will continue to keep Manfred and all the family 
in my prayers.

I will be praying for wisdom, and if healing Manfred is God's will, 
that it happens quickly. If God chooses to take manfred home, I pray 
that it happens quickly and that the family is at peace with God's decision.

I pray for Comfort and love for the entire family.

God Bless you all.

Lovingly in Christ,

Pat Ferguson
