EMERGENCY-My Brother Being RUSHED TO HOSPITAL NOW

Please pray for my precious brother 

JOHN SCHUFFERT. 

My brother John last Christmas 2013

I just received a phone call from his nursing home in NC, at 3:54 PM MST today 11/29/2014.

The nurse told me that John was swollen on one side, with bloody urine, and he was unresponsive to attempts to communicate with him. They are now preparing to rush him to the nearby hospital for emergency procedures.

This is the phone call I dreaded. Every few weeks, the nursing home has contacted me to inform me of John's health issues and general condition.Every time they have called, John's condition seemed a little more deteriorated than the previous. I finally  realized that he was not recovering, but rather becoming worse with time.

How I love my brother John! What a powerful Christian testimony he has, of Jesus saving him from years of drugs and alcohol and living for the world. John became a transformed person, because of Jesus Christ Who saved him from such darkness. 

Sadly, however, over 40  years of abusing his body with drugs and alcohol, coupled with a lifestyle that did not glorify God, took a tragic toll on his body and his health.

It is not without reason that the Bible declares that "the wages of sin is death."

However, John had a reprieve from death last year, when I came to visit him. Discovering him close to death due to malpractice and neglect at GOLDEN LIVING NURSING HOME in Hendersonville, NC, I ordered them to call an ambulance immediately and transport him to the emergency room at Park Ridge Hospital in Fletcher, NC.

The wonderful staff there, including his operating surgeon Dr. Stover, literally saved his life! I thank God for these wonderful people and what they did to give my brother a little while longer on this side of heaven, to glorify God with his shining testimony of how Jesus saved "a wretch like John."

And now, John's health condition is very serious. I will keep you all informed of his condition as I receive word. Honestly, John may not make it through this situation at this time. 

Although I would love to go and minister to him, He is over 2,000 miles away from where I am presently living, and I do not have the necessary funds to travel there to see him. Taking care of  my friend Sylvia with her cancer condition and special health food and supplements requirements has all but depleted my basic funds at this time.

We are now experiencing the second arctic blast of this month, and it is all we can do to survive in an RV trailer as our pipes freeze up, leaving us without water or sewer at this time. We have been hit with two unexpected Arctic blasts, one after the other, requiring extra propane and emergency supplies.

Please pray for John Schuffert at this time. Pray for God's great hands of mercy to do what seems best in the Father's heart at this time. My brother's body is worn out, and he is weary of suffering in pain, bedridden and unable to walk or enjoy life, His true home is in Heaven, free from all pain and suffering at last, and able to begin the next exciting chapter of his life in GLORY WITH JESUS.

I commit my beloved brother 

JOHN SCHUFFERT

into the hands 

of our Almighty Father in Heaven, 

and to the care of 

Jesus Christ his Savior and mine.

Thank you for your ongoing prayers at this time.

A Precious Miracle...Brother Out of ICU

Thank you Jesus for the miracle of John surviving another health crisis!

By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective-

After several warnings from the doctor that my brother could possibly die from his physical conditions, another miracle has happened and John has survived this latest ordeal. He was just discharged from the hospital and placed in a nearby health and rehabilitation nursing home.

I thank God that none of the grim prognoses his doctor gave while in ICU ever came to pass: his left foot might have to be amputated, he may have a bowel blockage or tumor, etc. His foot condition improved (for now) and no tumor was found through MRI testing.

When I visited John, he was able to understand and communicate with me, and was so happy to see me. When I told him he had to get better so I could bring him his favorite ice cream, his face lit up and he said "yes!" 

But just as the doctor admitted, even if John did survive this ICU crisis, he would be deteriorated in his condition after recovery. And this is what I found while visiting him. He has grown progressively weaker, including with his hands that he needs to feed himself, and remains bedridden 24/7.

It is often so sad to have to watch as a loved one slowly succumbs to illness or old age. But John and I both have the consolation that there IS a glorious eternity ahead for him, and that his sins are forgiven and his name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Oh, what joy and peace this brings to both of us.

Thank you ALL for your wonderful prayers for John at this time. And thank you for your prayers for me as well. God has a purpose and a plan in the midst of suffering, trials and testings, and both John and I praise God in the midst of all this. As the Bible says, "In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us." And we are.

John knows that I love him and I care, and appreciates my visiting him. However, he believes in my work and ministry, and wants me to feel free to continue on with this important work and trusting God for his situation. Thankfully, I can both visit John, and press on with my Christian outreach and reporting.

And so, my work and ministry continues on unabated. 

Thank you, precious readers from across the globe...your prayers made the difference once again! May God bless you all. John says "hello" and a big "thank you" to you all as well!

-Pamela Rae Schuffert and Brother John
