MONDAY, JANUARY 16, 2012

Good evening.

I am sorry I am so remiss in updating. We have been very busy.

This year is just motoring right along! January 6th was Bryon's birthday. It was a good day. Today is my firstborn child's birthday. Happy Birthday, Jeremy. I can't believe I have a 30-year-old son! How did that happen? I remember the day he was born like it was yesterday!! And in 8 days it is my and Bryon's anniversary! And in 10 short days my precious granddaughter turns 1!! Unbelievable!! See, it is a busy month.

David is doing ok, he is holding his own. He still doesn't eat much, however. We would really like to see his appetite pick up! Nothing appeals to him. It is so frustrating. Otherwise he is doing ok.

Please continue to pray for Fiona and for Rachel. These two beautiful girls are amazing. Rachel was able to graduate (early) from High School on Friday. It was on her 'bucket list' and I am so glad that she was able to fulfill that wish. This is what the paper said about her, "(Rachel ) Collett, who's under hospice care, might not make it to June, her original graduation date. So the Livonia Public Schools staff arranged a private graduation ceremony five months early just for her. She was wheeled onto the stage, wearing a red cap and gown, while a recording of 'Pomp and Circumstance' played softly in the background."
I'm so happy she got to graduate, I know how important it was to her. The cancer is in her ribs, spine, hips, and lungs; and she is in pain. Please continue to pray for both of these girls. It is so hard for me to hear of kids suffering from the same monster that is laying stable in my son. I feel like he is a ticking time bomb~~~when will it come alive in him? We are always waiting for the other shoe to drop. *sigh* Anyway, I really appreciate the prayers for Rachel and Fiona.

We woke up to snow this morning! It has been cold, so it was a nice surprise. I forgot to tell you that the lowest temp we had last year was on Christmas Eve, the low was 1.1 degree!!! It is supposed to be 3 tonight, so we think it will be colder. The low Christmas Eve was predicted to be 8, so it is usually lower than they think it will be. We will see.

I have another prayers request that I can't divulge at this time. Since God knows what it is, please pray for God's will in this matter. Thanks.

Thanks for visiting. Have a good night. God bless you all. We love you.

Cancer is a strange cell. You can go along for years in remission, and then one day it pops it's head up again. If you ever have it you will never be free of it. Pray for the day there will be a permanent cure. (I can't remember where I read this)
