Prayer Request

Sean, a dear friend of mine, and a fellow teacher of mine at Elder High School, is in need of prayers. He is having trouble with his heart, and they is not sure what is causing it, possibly a virus that he caught while taking students to Honduras this past summer. To make matters worse, his wife of just a year is six months pregnant with their first child. She is a teacher as well, and trying to get loose ends tied up to join him at the Cleveland Clinic, where he was transfered today. There is a good need to storm heaven with prayers for Sean, he has a great spiritual heart, now we just need his physical heart to catch up.

UPDATE:

From emails received earlier today, Sean's wife Robyn has made it up to the Cleveland Clinic from Cincinnati, which eased both of their souls. Sean seems to be responding to some of the treatments, as his heart rate has slowed, but blood pressure is still way too low. Keep the prayers coming, please!

I'll add a prayer. Please post an update on your friend if and when you think it is appropriate.
