Kim and Justin Ford

There's been a lot going on with the Allred family. Kim's husband lost all the feeling in his legs and has been in the hospital for about 10 days now. It's been pretty scary. They didn't know what it was until about 2 days ago they decided it was this virus that attacks the cells in the spinal cord. It has been really hard on the family but they are staying positive. Kim usually watches her sisters kids during the week but with her husband in the hospital, she hasn't even been home since this happened. She's been sleeping in the hospital so her husband isn't alone and has been sending her own kids to various family members. I took her sisters twins last week and they are coming again this week. They just turned 8 yesterday. They are good kids and Cody loves having them around. It's been keeping me busy while Brian is away on the bow hunt. He hit a 3 point last night and decided to finish tracking it this morning. At least this way he won't be going on the rifle hunt or the muzzle loader hunt. Just one more hunt with his boss in Wyoming or something. They are allowed to hunt bears and other scary animals. I don't want him to go on that one! Maybe if it were with a rifle I'd feel a tiny bit better, but a bow and arrow? oh well. He's really excited about it.
Hm. Kinda went off track there. So anyway, if you could pray for Brian's sister Kim and her husband Justin it would be much appreciated. The good news is that he should most likely walk again. Someday. It could take 6 months to 2 years to be able to, so basically they don't have a lot of answers. Well there's an update for ya.
