URGENT Prayer for Ronnie

While I would love to spend time telling you all about the last few days of my Germany trip, it will have to wait. Right now I am asking that you take a moment and pray for Ronnie. I'm sure this short blog will lead you with a lot of questions, but unfortunately, neither Ronnie nor I can answer them.

Ronnie dropped my off at the Frankfurt airport yesterday afternoon (German time which is 6hrs ahead of IN). As I made my way back to the US, Ronnie took a train back to the base. He began to not feel well in the evening. He said it was minor chest pain. He went to the store and, on the way back, collapsed. He said it was like getting stabbed in the chest but it sent a pain surging through his left arm and up his neck. He cant remember what happened after that or how long he laid there, but he woke up to some guys dragging him through the woods and asking him how long he had been there and what had happened. they got him to the base clinic and called an ambulance which took him to the closest hospital.

He had/has paralysis on his left side in his arm and something wrong with his left eye. He can move a couple fingers now, but his arm is still limp. The doctors have been running tests. His MRI and CAT Scan came back fine. He is waiting to see/hear from a neurologist in the morning that will hopefully be able to explain the results of another shock-type test.

Please, please pray for Ronnie as he goes through all of this. I know he feels very alone in it all because he is so far away and I'm sure that is scary too. Also pray that the doctors will find out what is wrong quickly and that it will be an easy fix. Also, we are not sure what the Army will do with all of this. Your prayers are coveted. Thank you.

please feel free to comment.

Kristyn, there is so much happening in spiritual realms right now. The Lord is mighty in this all -- there is much fruit being borne and our enemy is on the prowl.

We are praying for those who are treating and testing Ronnie, for discernment and that Ronnie would be a witness of Christ's peace to them. We are also praying peace for you and your family, and most of all for what is unseen.

Love,
Marcie and the Boys
