I just received an email detailing that FIAR Stephen Lambert is in the hospital. I know many of us use/have used their wonderful products:

________________________________________________________

Dear friends,

Steve is being admitted to the hospital with a subdural hemotoma. About a month ago, he fell on the ice at their home in Michigan and apparently, this hemotoma is a result from trauma to the brain at that time. These types of injuries are almost always caused by accidents/trauma and they were told that it looks as if he sustained some fairly significant damage when he fell.

At this point, it looks like Steve will undergo surgery to relieve the swelling on his brain, and will be in the hospital for a few days.

Steve's never been a guy to make a fuss about much but I know that both he and Jane covet your prayers for a full recovery and more immediately, for relief from the headache and weakness that he is experiencing.

________________________________________________________

Prayers for him and his family.

I just wanted to add that they are currently without health insurance apparently, so prayers for their financial health through this crisis would probably be most appreciated as well. Steve is such a great guy; a wonderful speaker, supportive husband, and proud father (and now grandfather). Prayers for the Lamberts.
