Family & Florida

For the first time in a while, I'm writing about bad news.
We have had to cancel our Florida tour/family vacation. This is due to our dad's health. In the last 48 hours, his health has taken a turn for the worse and his menieres disease has returned. He went deaf in his infected ear again, started staggering, losing his balance, vomiting, and was generally as sick as he was a few months ago.
The only encouraging thing at the moment is that, as of this writing, he is already getting a little better! In the past, his sickness would come and go capriciously, and when it came, it would usually go VERY slowly, so the fact that he is already a little better is good news!
However, He is in no condition to drive an enormous motor-home nearly 2,000 miles down to Florida, and even if he got well suddenly, there is still a possible chance of him getting incredibly sick down there.
This, of course, leaves us with all of February and March w/ no ministry bookings. I only accepted bookings for those months in Florida, and now have canceled those dates. If you are reading this and you are a pastor or person that books concerts, we are now wide open for February and March!
Please pray for our Dad. This is a very hard way for him to live. We are hoping that he will be relieved and be all right soon.
