Rosalind

Rosalind is not doing good. She called me about 4 times through the night- to pray for her and read scripture over her. She was flipping out- hearing her deceased boyfriend talking to her, blaming her, hating her. The second time she called was from the hospital where they gave her some anti-depressants and sent her home, telling her to call MHMR in the morning. She's talking about going to Big Spring where the hospital for those who are mentally ill are treated. She really needs help.

I kept speaking truth over her, but it was like she couldn't even hear it, yet alone understand or take hold of it. While I was thinking this over, I saw that she was like a person who had built on sand- or worse on quicksand. She isn't on the rock that gives her strength in the storm, but is tossed mercilessly by the powers of darkness. But the power of love can prevail. She has hit her bottom- or so it seems and wants to live right. She said someone stopped by yesterday offering her crack and she refused. She wants to be free- of her addictions, of the voices, of Don and the haunting call of mental illness. She kept saying she didn't want to be crazy. She was in a really bad way.

With further tests, the Baiers found out that Isaiah does have hearing loss. Pretty severe hearing loss. So they are about to meet with a specialist to find out what can be done. They are anxious to get home and be out of hospitals, but are trying to way out what will be best for their son and of course put his needs first.
