Call for prayers and good thoughts...

We've had some sad and difficult news. Ritesh's dad had a heart attack on Saturday morning. He has been in intensive care ever since, more or less stable, but in critical condition, heavily sedated and connected to a dozen machines and IV tubes, including a ventilator. Today is day 3 since the attack, and his heart seems to be slowly recovering, but unfortunately there is some water in his lungs that's just not going away and that's making it hard for him to breathe on his own. He also contracted a lung infection and has been running a fever since lunch time. He was supposed to be off the respirator by now, so we're very concerned and not sure what to think. We're trying to remain positive but we're all exhausted. Hopefully his temperature will be down tomorrow. It's hard to see him in this much pain.
