Bethani has been resting more and more. She was dehydrated and one of her lungs is two-thirds filled with fluid, but she had no fever. The doctors at this point think the lung fluid will clear by itself. They can drain it if it is needed (God can drain it!) The ultrasound and x-ray on her liver was fine. Fluid is flowing through her liver. Last night she was able to keep her medications in her system. They are trying different meds for the nausea. The doctors want her to eat anything at this point. The more calories the better.
She has been very determined to get better. Even when she was nauseated she would still get up and walk. The doctors very strongly told her she needs to eat more to get more strength.
Bro Bishop is at home with Wyatt. Sis Bishop and Brian are at the hospital with Bethani. Thank you for your prayer for all of them. God's family is awesome! The support and prayer they are getting is beyond words.

Bethani~
When I heard you had been admitted to the hospital I was worried. But hearing this report puts me at ease. It sounds like the biggest problem is getting your nausea meds right so you can stay hydrated and eat. I pray they find the right medication and dosage. I love you and I'm thinking of you daily. Hang in there girl. There is another miraculous healing around the corner!

Sis. Bishop & Brian:
We are going to see the Glory of our Great God as He passes by the hospital in San Francisco.
I know because His Glory passed by me there earlier this year.
God best for each of you, including Brian;

Bethani, Brian and Wyatt, You're in the thoughts and prayers of many of us at Promise Land Worship Center in Fairfield, CA. God bless you Bethani, and give you strength, healing and a good appetite.
Much love,

Good girl Bethani!! Kick in that determination and feed that little tummy of yours even when your mind says you're not hungry.
Thank you for posting the pictures. It's great to look at that special beautiful couple that we've all been praying for.
Thank you so much for the update!
Love and more prayers,

Dear Bethani:
We are praying HARD for your complete recovery. We know this time is probably very difficult for you and your family. Our hearts go out to you and want you to know we love you. Love, prayers and faith for your complete recover will pull you through this.
Thanks to whomever is updating the blog, for I know that is the last thing on your minds at this point.
I'm happy to hear that Bethani is improving. We're still praying and still believing God for her full recovery.

This no doubt is part of the road to recovery. As difficult as it is, you are in God hands and He is doing a great work. He knows where you are at and how you are feeling and He will bring you through with health and strength.
Praying in Torrance!
Bethani,
We are praying for you daily. Keep on walking and you'll walk right on out of that hospital. Brian, order out or something. Get that girl some good food. I've eaten hospital food too and I didn't like it either. We love you guys!

Praise the Good Lord !!!! He can and will do anything :)
We already miss you back here at home. So hurry up and eat a big dinner, keep it down and come home ;) LOL
We love you soooo much and just want to see you out and about and back to your old (young) self.
Still praying and thinking about you daily.

Thanks for the update. We will have special prayer again tonight at Bible Study. Eat those calories!
Blessings
Bethani,
You can have my calories too. In fact you would be doing me a favor, that's for sure. We love you and are so happy to hear that the doctors are helping get your meds corrected. Please take care and know we are praying. Our family loves you.
Well, I have heard of donating blood before, but this is the first I've heard about donating calories. LOL I will join with Sis. Hopper and send you my calories, too. Guess that means I will be fasting. For you, Bethani, I would give up chocolate! I love you bunches and am continuing to pray for you.
Our sweet Bethani: Well, I guess you need one of my Chocolate cakes. And you need to eat it all by yourself. LOL I'll make one for the rest of the family so they won't eat yours. LOL. We are praying for you all....Brian and Sis Bishop too. I'm so glad you have your sweet Mama with you. There is nothing like a Mom.
Luv u bunches.
Tricia & David Opdyke

We are in on the calorie donations! LOL Anyway, so glad to hear you are feeling better. Many prayers are going up for the entire family here on the east coast. We have requested prayer from everyone we know, in every venue possible. Church, folks from my job, my mom's job.... Thanks to the person taking the time to keep this blog updated, it is a great comfort to be able to get news from this far away. Our love to you, Bethani, and to Brian, baby Wyatt, Bro.& Sis. Bishop and the rest of the family! Eat, eat, eat!Alan, Shannon, Aidan & Lailah Wing
Oh, Bethani, if only I were there, I could totally help you with the calorie intake. But, here I sit in Ohio (freezing to death, I might add!) wishing I could do something. I just keep praying and trusting God to help you and Brian through this.
I am so grateful to whomever is keeping this blog updated. I'm not sure how intact my sanity would be without it.
Love,
Jill Vestal
To everybody connected with Bethani:
I think of you several times a day, continue to pray and to believe God. He's a good God and holds you firmly in the palm of His hand.
Be encouraged, grasp faith, and hang on to hope.
Love all of you,

Bethani,
Hang in there! You'll be home again soon! Just eat, eat, and eat again! It's hard to eat when you feel so nauseated...so, hopefully they get that under control for you soon so you can enjoy eating again! Hope your package made it there ok.
Love you,
Heather Potter (Johnson)
Double Double from In-N-Out...just call and we'll have it delivered! Eat girl Eat!! Love You and Praying for you.
