Day Three Update

Well, we had a small setback Friday evening. Jim started with a headache around 5:00 p.m. and nausea and vomiting after dinner. Since those are symptoms of increased brain pressure, we put him in the car and drove him back to Henry Ford ER.

God is so awesome!! The doctor that was on call tonight, was the same doctor who took care of him in ICU!

They first did a CT scan, which came back even better than the scan from the day he was discharged.
However after the CT scan, the assessment showed weakness on his left side. So they decided to do a CT Angiogram. The results haven't came back from the CTA yet, but we will post them once we find out the (GOOD) news!

Satan is finally realizing how BIG of a mistake he made, so he's going to do whatever he can to bring our hopes and faith down..... HAHAHA! Does he really know who he's messing with!?

We ask for your continued prayers as we wait for the CTA results, and for the rest of Jim's healing process.
God is SO good!! We know he'll be there to protect Jim every step of the way!

    Open your wings, spread them out
    This is what flying is all about.

    Now that you can fly and soar,

  3. HI JIM,

    WE ARE BELIEVING IN YOUR COMPLETE HEALING. JESUS SAID, WERE TWO OR MORE ARE GATHERED IN HIS NAME HE IS THERE. JESUS IS STRONGER THAN SATAN. SATAN DOSN'T HAVE A CHANCE. JESUS IS MORE POWERFUL THAN THIS BIG UNIVERSE. WE MUST DEPEND ON HIM. GOD IS OUR SOURCE OF INSPIRATION & TRUST. TRUST IN GOD & HE WILL DIRECT YOUR PATH. PRAISE HIM IN ALL THING, BECAUSE YOU HAVE JOY. LAST SUNDAY RON SCOTT TALKED ABOUT THE DIFFERANCE BETWEEN HAPPINESS & JOY. HAPPINESS IS WHEN GOOD THINGS HAPPEN IN YOUR LIFE. JOY IS WITHIN YOU NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS. I WILL CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR YOU. GOD WILL CARRY YOU ALL THE WAY.

    YOUR SISTER IN CHRIST,

    JULIE HOYT-KESSLER

  4. Dear God,
    Thank you for all you've done with Jim and his family. Lord what an amazing blessing for not only them, but all of us!! Lord I ask you to be with them as the attacks from Satan are hurled at them. Lord give them strength beyond measure, faith of a million mustard seeds, the wisdom of Solomon, and the patience of Job. Lord bless the house that holds our loves ones, please put a hedge of protection around them and the house. Please send your angels to watch over all of the members of that family, and be with them as the glorify your holy name in all they do!!
    Thank you Lord!!
    In Jesus name,
    Amen
