Hi we're back and enjoying the comments. We are happy for all those of you who have a snow day. Jeff told us on the phone it was bad back there. Hopefully they will get the roads cleared early and people can get around. We only got 1 inch here.
Kel & Nate ~ Nick was inMonterey CA last week Mon-Thurs. on business. He said it rained everyday. Is it still? Kel did you share the blogspot with Amy. We'll take prayers from New Zealand too. I am going to email my friend Beverly in London and we already let Thomas know in Germany. We may as well get the whole world in on praying for Seth and his COMPLETE recovery. Isn't God amazing how he networks people together, and teaches us how to love. He says the world will know you are my disciples by the love you have one for another. You all have poured out the most amazing a undescribable love onto this young man and on us. What you have done for us is Eternal. Our lives will never be the same.
With the storms of life we have just passed through of buring 2 of my parents just 5 weeks apart and Seth getting so sick at the same time, we have in some ways been crushed (wind blown) BUT not destroyed. The winds were strong, but we have stood and now just over the horizon the sun is stating to break through. It is your love and your prayers that have supenaturally carried us through. We know we have another surgery for Seth ahead of us in just 12 weeks but together we will see the rainbow!
Seth is almost finished with the first unit of blood and all is well. He is sleeping through most of it.
A man just came in and told me they have made arrangements for the In Home Nursing Care for Seth when we get back to Illinois, they have also made arrangements for all of the suppplies we will need. That is a great releif to know it's taken care of. They are still working on getting all the paperwork filled out and faxed back to PCS so Seth can have a tutor. We have been waiting on this paperwork for almost a week and a half. I have asked for help to get this done. Maybe today we'll see results. Seth brought his homework and books with him to the hospital. I don't know if he'll be able to pick any of them up and actually concentrate to study ~ but maybe in a few days. He really doesn't want to get behind in his studies or have his grades suffer. He's starting to stir a bit so I'll close for now.
P.S. Gale your comments cracked us up! Ruthi thanks for the pic. Love Vickie
