FARIBAULT:
-Lydia Christesen’s msg about Brad: We’re good here. He’s back home from the hospital. He must use walker for now due to poor balance. He doesn’t like it. I told him that first work with physical therapist to learn to rebalance again before on upstairs. I went to bed real early last nite, and slept for nine hours! Two days really exhausted! We’re glad to be back home. Our family church takes care of us and takes care of meals on train, so we won’t have to cook etc. What a blessing! Mike Robinson is in charge. He fell in upstairs bathroom then he had to crawl to his den then waited for me to wake up. Scary. 911 called. Our son Gilbert came to assist us. He’s a blessed! Now yes we’re getting to rest for now. He had blackout for no reason that was why he fell. No fracture bones. He has a big bruise near hip area. He will have a doctor appointment on Tuesday, April 14. He needs His healing touch!
