UGGG, OH MY!

OH MY, TODAY WAS ONE OF THOSE TERRIBLE DAYS, THE
ONES YOU WILL NEVER FORGET!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AS MUCH AS I WANTED TO BE WITH MOM TODAY,
(and at her cancer doctors request) I JUST COULD NOT!
It was my first day back to work, and after missing the first 16
days last year at the beginning of the school year, I just could
not miss again! BUT, IT'S NOT ABOUT ME!
THANKS GENE, FRANCES, JENNA AND CAROLE FOR BEING THERE.
MOM HAD MORE BAD NEWS TODAY.
THEY TOLD HER THAT SHE HAS "MAYBE 6 MONTHS"
NOW I KNOW THAT NO HUMAN KNOWS, ITS ALL UP TO GOD!
BUT IT IS STILL A HARD PILL TO SWALLOW! AND FOR HER IT
WAS JUST THE PITS, I'M SURE! ... THEY ALSO PUT HER ON A
PAIN PATCH TO GO ALONG WITH HER PAIN MEDS EVERY
FOUR HOURS.. SO HOPEFULLY AT LEAST THEY ARE GOING TO
REALLY MAKE AN EFFORT AT KEEPING HER COMFORTABLE.
They told her also that they couldn't find a doctor no where close to
remove her thyroid, none would even try it at this point.. But one
in Charlottesville would... but she told me tonight that unless somehow
it would actually help her that she just was not going to have it.
I THINK IT ALL SHOULD BE HER DECISION!
SO KEEP HER IN YOUR PRAYERS PLEASE! I KNOW IS SOME
REALLY HARD NEWS TO BE FACING. THANKFULLY SHE IS A
CHRISTIAN SO THAT IS NOT A PROBLEM AT LEAST!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
makes my first day at work including a boring 1 hour meeting
seem oh so small BUT I AM THANKFUL LORD, FOR MY JOB!
BUT THEN THEY HAD TO TAKE MY ONLY GRANDSON,
HANDSOME AND SWEET AS HE IS, TO THE E.R. TONIGHT
TO HAVE HIS HAND CHECKED DUE TO A FOOTBALL INJURY!
THANKFULLY NOTHING IS BROKEN, JUST SWOLLEN AND BRUISED!
; ( POOR NATHAN... BUT THANKFULLY HE IS HANGING TOUGH!
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A PANDA DOG?
HE IS SURELY MARKED LIKE A PANDA , DON'T YOU THINK SO?
JUST SO ODD, THAT I HAD TO ADD IT!
IT SURE WOULD MAKE YOU TAKE A SECOND LOOK!
GUESS HE'S REALLY LIVING A "DOG'S LIFE!" HA
GUESS THEY HAVE MORE THAN LOOKS IN COMMON,
I BET THEY BOTH GROWLLLLL! HA!

DEAR HEAVENLY FATHER, WE KNOW THAT YOU ARE IN
CONTROL. HELP US ALONG OUR WAY PLEASE TO LIVE AS
YOU WOULD HAVE US TO LIVE. HELP US ALL TO UNDERSTAND
THAT YOU KNOW YOUR PLANS FOR EACH OF OUR LIVES AND TO
ACCEPT IT, WITH LOVE AND PRAISE FOR YOU.
GOD
GRANT ME THE
SERENITY
TO ACCEPT THE THINGS
I CANNOT CHANGE.
COURAGE
TO CHANGE THE
THINGS I CAN, AND
WISDOM
TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.
--------
we give You our love, praise, honor, and glory
in Jesus Holy name, amen.
---------------------------------------
COURAGE...
isn't always a lion's roar.
It is sometimes the heart
at the end of a day saying....
"I will try again tomorrow"
-------------------------
GOD, GRANT EACH OF US THIS KIND
OF COURAGE, PLEASE AND THANK
YOU AND THE GRACE TO DO IT
PLEASINGLY TO YOU.
--------------------
GROUP HUG EVERYBODY!
You know, sometimes everyone
just needs a good long sincere
hug to help make it through the day!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS,
LOVE AND PRAYERS IN RETURN, AND
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS
