The Lord knows who I am speaking of, since it is a court case now, let's just call him T.

We need the power of Prayer and the power of our family to come together. T needs our prayers. T's family has decided they cannot/won't care for him any longer and is trying to put him in a state nursing home - he has been living in an assisted care apartment.

Actually his family has the money, they have supposedly used up all of T's money. They want to declare him incompetent. He does not want to go into a nursing home and, most of all, he is not incompetent!

He was injured in an auto accident many years ago, though you have to listen carefully, T is very quickwitted, loves to joke, and is very aware of everything that is going on around him. He has such an awesome faith, you see him attempting to sing the DL everytime he is in Church. He is such a blessing to our Church and is loved dearly by everyone.

He has been moved into his caregivers home, and have hired an attorney to fight his family. There will be a court hearing tomorrow at 2:30. We must listen to the Holy Spirit's call and care for those who cannot do it alone. Please keep T's caregiver, his wife, and family as they take on this trial, along with T in your prayers.

Prayers...

UPDATE:

The judge determined she did not have enough time today to obtain all of the testimony. And they want another competency test performed at UAB. It was continued until Wed at 2pm. She did say that 'T' could stay with us this week until Wed's hearing. He passed the first competency test. There is no doubt he will again. Thank you for your prayers. It's now in God's hands.

Prayers!

Thank you!

some continued update...
'T' passed the first competency test, advanced, and, he will this one also. There was about 14 of us present. The judge thought we were with the family and her facial expression was priceless when we told her we were his friends. T's atty said having the support of friends was a huge step in his favor. It's now in God's hands.

HI EVERYONE, got an update. Thanks for your continued prayers.....
We just heard from the Judge on 'T's' case. She has postponed the hearing today. She wants the 2nd competency test before the next hearing. And it has not been scheduled yet. Two good things have occurred, tho.....the social worker's report said he felt 'T' was competent. (We knew that already.) And, he is still with us(the family he is staying with) at our house. Thank you if you were planning to go with us to court today. I will let you know the date of the next hearing. Please continue to keep him in your prayers.

As many prayers as can be said! Lord Have Mercy! Keep fighting the good fight. And God Bless YOU for helping out!

Prayers for T's success in his battle for independence and prayers for his loyal and loving friends who have stood by his side in support.
