For Ian and Diana Macdougald

On Saturday, September 19, 2009, the congregation of St. John's Episcopal Church was asked to keep Ian and Diana Macdougald in prayer. A tumor was discovered in Diana's brain at our local Midland hosptial. Ian and Diana immediately went to Ann Arbor where the tumor was confirmed and considered inoperable. This blog is intended to provide updates for family and friends of Ian and Diana. Please use the comment area FOR THE MOST RECENT POST to share words of encouragement and prayer.

A new path for the journey

From Chris: Please keep all the Macdougalds in your prayers as Diana's condition steadily worsens. She has not spoken for a day and dozes often. She is not quite in a coma. She responds more to spiritual messages than to everyday care taking. Fortunately, she seems at peace and in no pain. The current plan is to take Diana to Brian's house in Bay City (less than 30 minutes from Midland) tomorrow Friday. Ian and Diana's friend, Judy, has been a constant nurse and companion for the last week but more than one person is needed for simple care giving. Diana cannot be left alone. Please pray that Andrew is able to find a flight to the states midst all the returning World Cup fans. The family covets your prayers at this time.
