BETTY CREIGLOW

All of you who are familiar with the name BETTY CREIGLOW know that she is the beloved wife of BOBBY CREIGLOW - and MIKE CREIGLOW's mother. They served the Lord in association with BFM in Brasil for 33 years - from 1960-1993.

She has suffered from dementia and Alzheimer's Disease for the past few years and has been in rapidly declining physical health for the past several months.

We thought this past Saturday [2 May] that the Lord had called her to come Home. She went into a deep sleep Friday night and slept well into the day on Saturday. Her vital signs declined. Bobby notified us, and we began to keep in constant touch with him.

But, she revived after a good night's sleep again on Saturday evening. Sunday and Monday both, she showed signs of physical revival. We got this email from Bobby this morning [Wednesday, 6 May]: Monday Betty had a good day; She was having a big party in her own little world. She would laugh, try to sing, and clap her hands, having a great time with anyone that would talked to her. Since yesterday morning she is in that hang-over phase. She is sleeping most of the time. Last evening she seemed to be a little upset, so I gave her some medicine for that, and she slept from six to six, had her usual breakfast, and is back to sleep. I got up often last night to see if she was still breathing, and at times I could not be sure. Love,Bob

Continue to pray for her, for Bobby, and for their family.
