My letter about Betty’s Stroke
I am sitting in my motorhome across the street from Grace Community Church in Pharr, Texas where Wally Morillo is the pastor.
Betty was taken to the Rio Grande Hospital because of having another stroke where she could not talk, stand, or walk. At this point, she is completely bedridden. This has left her right side (leg and arm) without mobility.
My prayer request:
Repair the wiring in the brain. An electric fan cannot cool you from the heat if the other end is not plugged in the outlet.
Regain total use of speech, arm, and leg.
Reschedule our plans. Last week when Betty was in the Methodist Hospital in Conroe, Texas, she texted me and said, “My love, go and preach and show them what a wonderful husband I am married to. I am right where God wants me.”
Remember that some things in our lives will not be our call but will be the Lord’s. We want you to pray that we will keep trusting the Lord as he walks us through this stage of our life.
You may ask a question in the comment section of my Ralph Yankee Arnold FaceBook page. I will post any updates there, so, please do not call her number. As of this moment, no changes have been made in my preaching schedule. A lot depends on Betty’s progress.
Please feel free to share. Three years ago, (in Jan) I was in the VA hospital for 23 days where I could not stand or walk because of Covid. Two months later I was driving and preaching across America. I believe it was also due to the prayers from God's people who prayed and shared.
Many times, progress is slow with results from a stroke, so updates will be when there is a significant change. I have never faced a situation like this before, and I will have many decisions to make. So, if you don't mind, please include me in those prayers.

This was a present from me to my parents Ralph 'Yankee' Arnold at Christmas (Hand Casting)They left it here at the house because they weren't finish drying and had to be painted. but these hands mean so much to me right now I think they did a beautiful job of not moving for 10 solid minutes. showing their love for 65 years and with God's blessings many more to come.
