Here is the oldest update from Lisa:
Rich has been running a 101.9 fever since about 2pm. The Dr. says this is not normal.
Please pray that this goes down…
On a praise- Rich got out of bed for about 5 minute walk. He was so tired after, but it was great to see.
He was finally starting to really sleep as I left tonight.
He has a full day of visitors, 25 to be extact! He is very loved. We are so thankful for all of your love, prayes and support! You are all wonderful Brothers and Sisters in the Lord and this is a true example of fellowship and serving each other in Christ’s Love.
And then this update is from about 10:00 a.m. this morning:
Thankfully Rich’s temp is now normal. When I came in this morning he sat in a chair for a little while-what a great site! It’s surreal to be on the cancer floor however a really neat thing is every time a baby is born a baby tune plays. What a wonderful reminder that God is good!
And this update is from about 4 hours ago.
Rich was just moved to a private room and a Rich sized bed-so wonderful!!! Now on to the food huddle. He has to eat before he can leave and be able be to swallow pills.
So… Things are looking up for our friend Mr. Rich! Let’s keep praying that God does his thing. Haven’t heard anything about the Doctor’s report yet, but as soon as we do, we’ll get something posted.
Your words of encouragement have been a great blessing to Rich, Lisa, and the boys. Keep them coming and…
Press On!
Rich and Lisa, so good to hear your positive updates. Praise God that your fever is gone. I have so much to learn from you both, even having walked in your shoes, Rich. Thank you for being such an inspiration and for sharing your Faith and journey. Love, prayers and hugs!

Rich,
Diana and I along with another prayer warrior prayed for you last night around 9:30PM…I believe those prayers along with everyone elses had an impact on your fever…thank you Father.
I’m convinced God is doing so much more for you then our earthly minds can grasp…I can feel it each time we pray… I’ve never really sensed anything like it.
You’re truly in Good Hands.
I cant wait to see all the Good He is going to bring for You and Your family.
All His Best!
Ken and Diana

Rich you have been a great man of God, a great husband and Father and a great mentor to many. I pray that God’s healing touch be with the doctors who are working on you. These are the times that you pray never come but when they do and God has shown you through it you reflect back and can praise HIM for what he did and how he is using it. You have many friends and my family and I are one. We are thinking of you daily and pray for a speedy recovery. I personally pray that God gives you the ability to do some missionary work while you are in the hospital and let the nurses and doctors in on some “miracle medicine” that is The Salvation of Jesus Christ. We all love you and are praying for you. Take care and rest up. You neeed it. God Bless.
In the early morning, Keith and I have been praying for you. Stay tough – you have lots of people praying over you. Your testimony is incredible. “The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” James 5:16
lots of prayers being sent for you all!
We give thanks to God…praying always for you. Colossians 1:3
Press On! How “Rich” is that!! Our prayers are with you my friend!
Praying here in Africa! May His glory shine brightly in the MIDST of your trial. May you come to a greater understanding of His loving care for you as you walk through this valley and know that the Master is carrying you. Bless His HOLY name!
