Update for Ben: The doctor agreed to let him go outside and lay in the grass for 10 minutes. It was so wonderful it made him cry. The highlight of his day . They had to unhook him from everything, fill him with fluids and get him a wheel chair . It was quite the process. When Miraculously it finally happened, it was 5:00 exactly the time when we were starting the prayer ceremony on the land for him . He didn’t realize the time til he came back into the room and looked at the clock. He sat and soaked in the energy of the prayers and it was extremely healing for him . At the end if the ceremony After the Lakota thank you song, thousands of birds came through the sky flying in a huge line across the entire sky in the direction of Olathe hospital . Everyone watched in silence . Spirit moves in magical ways . Prayers were being transported on the wings of birds . He felt the prayers and actually felt hungry for the first time . Big thank you to Erica Staley Sims who set this up and led the prayer and to everyone who came out and who prayed from home.

Ben Still has pockets of infection they can’t figure out yet and they want to figure it out before they let him go. He’s breathing better and some numbers are good and some not so good but making progress. They let us go outside again for 10 minutes laying on the grass in the sunshine . He may start to be known as the guy that lays outside the hospital in the grass. Other patients have been coming to see him and saying , hey Ben! We saw you laying on the ground!
Maybe through his example he will spread the news that nature heals . 💚Maybe start a new KU med nature therapy program 🌳😊

The doctors and staff at Olathe Hospital (a new KU Med center) have been amazing . Seriously the best hospital experience Ive had in a long time . Big thank to all the caring staff there . 💗
