I have some good news to share. Richard’s vision is improved this morning! Richard’s vision is a lot better this morning! He can see light and shadows with his right eye. With his left eye, he can see further towards the right side than he could yesterday. It’s not back to what it was before, but it’s a lot more vision than yesterday! Reading still feels too difficult. He can read some, but he is straining to do so. Praise the Lord for the big improvement! Also, he had a fever last night, but his fever is gone! Thank you all for praying! He slept well too!

I will update again later after he has seen the doctors.
We appreciate all the prayer for us at this time!

Pray for our Missionary Richard Guay. This is from his wife.

Please pray for my sweet husband, Richard. He had a hemorrhagic stroke in the cortex of the left occipital lobe. Richard has been blind in his right eye since he was a little boy, but he normally can see light with it. This morning, he couldn’t see any light at all, and the vision in his left eye wasn’t normal. He had a terrible headache also that began during the night. It seems that his vision is all that has been effected at the moment, but he still has bleeding on the brain. Please pray for that to stop. They can’t give medication for the stroke until it stops. He is in intermediate ICU at Bangkok Hospital in Chiangmai. Thank you for praying. We are so thankful that it wasn’t worse, and we are trusting God to help him.
