Hello Canada!

Last Saturday evening we received a phone call that made some changes in our life. Our grandson, Jayson, collapsed while at his part time job setting up trade show displays.  When they found him he was not breathing so the first aiders their started AR until the paramedics arrived. His lungs had filled with blood so they could not get air to him  so they applied the sock treatment, I am not familiar with the real name, and on the third try his heart started beating.  That night was difficult for the family but morning he was stabilized.
We were still in Arizona and weren't sure what the outcome would be and felt like we should be their for our kids. With the help of the branch members we packed up and left Sunday afternoon. Arrived in Magrath Tuesday afternoon, had a fun time with our kids there and left next morning for Fort Saskatchewan.
Jayson is a miracle boy  and is improving each day. He regained consciousness on Monday and his memory is getting a little better each day. The specialists are still trying to determine what went wrong  and what to do. His heart is healthy but beats too fast, especially if he stands up and walks and not sure whats going on with the lungs. More tests and theories happening each day.
We are grateful for the many prayers that have been said and the blessings our family have received this past week.
It was very heart wrenching to leave the mission field especially a month early and not prepared for it. It has taken some adjusting but we are glad to be of service here. Our daughter and son in law are with Jayson 24 hours a day so we take care of things at home.
We love you all,
Wayne and Donna
