Prayers answered for James Fontanella
We received an update on James Fontanella from his wife Jamie:
"He came home today, Sunday, after gaining some weight, eating on his own & feeling better, and having a more normal GI function. An answer to prayers - we thank you all so much!! Now we've got to continue to make the gains that he had while on the TPN & IV fluids & meds. We are just so happy to be home & are eager to get & keep Jamie well! Thanks to each of you for your help and especially for your prayers. We are so blessed to have each of you in our lives! - Love, Dani & Jamie"
From Bill and Charlene Brannan:
"We feel strongly this recovery is a result of so many prayers and good wishes by so many caring and thoughtful people. To all of those who reached out on our son-in-law Jamie's behalf, please accept our thanks and gratitude."
