Rhonda,

I am so glad that Ben went along to the doctor and that at least there will 
be some medical care coming his way now.  "Thank you, Father, for opening up 
this way for Ben and Rhonda.  Give them peace in their hearts as they walk 
this road with you.  May it be a walk of glory to Your Holy Name!

"Amen!"
