Keeping George in prayer, as well as Vivian. She's mad 'cause God didn't
keep "her" promises, and not that he didn't keep "his" promises. She's a
bit mixed up there.  A dangerous thing to put words in the mouth of your
creator. As the song says "God is God, and I am not". Hope George hangs in
there, he'll come out OK if he can get stabilized.
