Hi and Merry Christmas to all my PG friends.

I am in intensive care in a hospital in New Braunfels TX, recovering from complications due to a serious case of strep throat. I ask for your prayers, knowing that with God all things are possible. I look forward to sharing music with my friends again in the very near future!

God bless you all!

Steve

You've got it. Get well!

Steve,

It's GOT to be crummy spending Christmas in the hospital! (But I've heard of people spending it in a stable when there was no room at the inn, so You're in good company.)

As others have said, take good care of yourself and get out of there ASAP and write a song about being in the hospital for Christmas.

We'll keep you in our prayers! As much as is possible, I hope you have a blessed and enjoyable Christmas.

Merry Christmas, Steve. Keep trusting and keep looking up.

Trust that you get out of that place, soon.

I'll look forward to listening to your next piece of music.

God Bless,

Don S.

I spent one in a war zone.....

If any of you know a family with a child or spouse who is away serving our country and can not get home for the holidays, think about giving them a call over Christmas. Parents or spouses in that state will ALWAYS appreciate someone calling to let them talk, vent or cry on their shoulder. Or just to know that someone cared enough to call.

Hi Steve - so sorry to hear the news. You'll be in my thoughts this Christmas.
Strep can be a nasty little thing when it spreads to other parts of the body.

I'm hoping the hospital will allow you some Christmas leniency when it comes to visitors. You mention "recovery" - any projected date?

God bless you, Steve - Ian

Steve, prayers for healing for you and all that are there with you.
Remember Christ puts us where we can help do His good, so share what we've sent with those around you that they too will have a blessing at Christmas and your prayers bless us as well.
We all need the Mercies & Blessing of God.

Merry Christmas to all my friends at PG Forum! I am still in intensive care. Not where I intended to spend Christmas this year!

I want to first of all celebrate the birth of my Savior Jesus Christ! And I am so thankful for my very supportive wife and family. And you guys at the PG Forum are such a real treasure! I have felt your prayers throughout this entire ordeal. Thank you so much!

My body finally started responding to treatments yesterday evening and I had the first good night of rest since Tuesday. I hope to get upgraded to a regular room by tonight , and be able to go home within a very few days. So you are not rid of me yet!

I'm still pretty weak and intend to milk that for all it's worth when I get home.

Again thanks so much for your prayers and so very kind words. You guys are the greatest!
Posted By: filkertom Re: Prayer request - 12/25/11 12:18 PM
YAY for responding to treatment! That's a pretty Merry Christmas, Steve -- keep it up, and get the heck out of there!
Posted By: Pat Marr Re: Prayer request - 12/25/11 12:51 PM
that's great news, Steve! Since you'll be off work for a while, you should have time to make some music once you get home!

Steve I'm so glad you are getting better. Standing with you in prayer. And I know your family will be so thankful to have you home that you'll get all the pampering you can handle. Looking forward to hearing that wonderful voice and many more beautiful songs.
Posted By: eddie1261 Re: Prayer request - 12/26/11 04:43 AM
Steve, remember that everything's bigger in Texas, and that by logic includes infections!! So take an extra few days of BIGGER rest to chase that BIGGER infection away!! And we'll all help with BIGGER prayers!
Posted By: Steve Young Re: Prayer request - 12/27/11 06:41 PM
I am now out of the hospital and at home! I was released yesterday evening. I am weak, but getting stronger every day.

Thank all of you so much for all your prayers! I look forward to many more good days of making and enjoying music with my friends here at PG Music!

You guys are the best!

Steve
