After seven years since the accident, he can see and hear better now. Many coworkers sent short video clips of Happy Birthday to Him. Thank you for your prayer support! May God heal him completely!

Thank and praise God for all your prayers! Danny laughed aloud for the first time in 7 years as shown in the picture. Please keep praying for his full recovery.

He hasn't made much difference in the last 7 years. He had a Botox treatment last May to reduce his saliva because the phlegm accumulated in his throat bothered his swallowing. But the situation worsened. He woke up often because of phlegm. We had to get up, which made us physically and mentally difficult. Last year, his left hip was dislocated and operated on, and later this year, the right leg is also required operation. Please pray for Daniel, M. Deborah, and me to wisely go through this suffering day by day. I sincerely pray that the glory of God will be revealed through Daniel in any shape according to John 9:3.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of my co-workers who have prayed for my son, DanielKim (8) for the past five years and eight months since the accident happened. Danny has not yet made any major improvements, but we have kept praying for God’s healing hands upon him until he may be a witness of the resurrection power with praise and thanks to God. Now he is able to listen, see, and express his feelings. However, he cannot communicate, stand-alone, swallow food, or saliva by himself. It's hard to breathe because his saliva keeps gathering in his mouth. He is going to have a Botox surgery this month to reduce the saliva.

Even in such circumstances, we thank God that it won't be developed into pneumonia. Although his left leg which was dislocated is slightly shorter than the right leg after surgery, he is overall healthy. His right leg is also slightly dislocated. So, we help him to stand on a parapodium in order to prevent his right leg from deteriorating. (Photo) Above all, I ask you to pray for him to be able to swallow food, saliva, speak, and stand by himself. Thank you so much for your love of prayer for Danny and us. We may rely on the risen Jesus and live with the hope of the resurrection so that we may win the victory.

The surgery was very successful.

Thanks for all your prayers. The surgical procedure was that the surgical team cut 4 places around his hip joint and corrected the deformed bones by putting pins on the left leg and finished the surgery by attaching some bones. He woke up fully from anesthesia and his condition isn’t good due to the pain of surgical sequelae while his body has been already weakened for a long time.

We pray for the full recovery of the surgery area, like his bones, and skins and complete correction of his left hip with less pain.

We once again give thanks to all your prayer supports for the surgery and Denny's full recovery. 

God bless!  

Today, Danny suddenly has developed a high fever and took a blood test to find out the cause. The doctor said that it might be an infection or some other medical reason but still is waiting for the results of the test. Due to the incident, he still stays in the intensive care unit postponing moving to a general hospital room that originally planned.

데니가 7년만에 처음으로 크게 웃었습니다! 주님을 찬양합니다. 그동안 기도지원해 주신 모든 분들께 진심으로 감사를 드립니다. 계속적으로 데니가 완전히 회복될수 있도록 기도해 주시면 감사드리겠습니다.

사고이후 지난 5년 8개월동안 김다니엘을 위해 기도해 주신 모든 동역자님들께 진심으로 감사드립니다. 다니(만8세)는 아직 큰 호전은 없지만 주님께서 치료의 광선을 비추사 외양간에서 나온 송아지처럼 뛰어 나와 주님을 찬양하고 복음을 전하는 부활의 증인으로 사용하여주시길 기도하고 있습니다.

현재 듣고, 보며, 아플때, 힘들때 감정은 표현합니다. 다만 커뮤니케이션이 불가능하고, 몸을 혼자 가누지 못하며, 음식이나 침을 잘 삼키지 못합니다. 침이 자꾸 고여 숨을 쉬는데 불편해하고 힘들어합니다. 그런 상황에서도 감사한것은 이로 인해 폐렴까지 되지 않은 것입니다. 왼쪽 고관절이 탈골해 수술후 왼쪽 다리가 조금 짧아지기는 했지만 건강하고, 오른쪽도 약간 탈골 상태이지만 악화되지 않도록 parapodium에 자주 세우고 있습니다. (사진) 이번달에 보톡스를 해서 침을 줄이도록 할 예정입니다.

무엇보다 음식과 침을 삼키고, 말을 하고, 몸을 스스로 가눌 수 있도록 계속 기도 부탁드립니다. 다니와 저희를 위한 사랑의 기도에 감사를 드립니다.
저희가 날마다 부활의 예수님을 의지하고, 또 부활의 산소망으로 하루 하루 승리할 수 있기를 기도합니다.

오는 12월 14일 수요일에 아들 다니엘이 고관절 수술을 받게 되어  기도를 부탁드립니다. 오랫동안 걷지않아 왼쪽 고관절이 60% 이상 탈구되어 제자리로 끼우는 수술을 합니다. 뼈를 자르고 엉덩이뼈에 왼쪽 고관절을 끼우고 핀을 박아 고정시키는 수술인데 문제없이 잘되고 수술후 통증이 없도록 기도해 주세요. 현재로는 2일정도 입원하고 퇴원해서 집에서 3주정도 회복하는 일정입니다. 제 안에 하나님의 평강과 굳센 믿음을 주셔서 두려움을 몰아내주셔서 이를 잘 감당토록 기도해주시면 감사하겠습니다.
