Hi jonny,
I have not been here and have missed this time together when I can completely forget about everything and just laugh with everyone.

My mom is getting through the chemo better than expected. I will travel tomorrow to help with this week's treatment. My father just got out of the hospital where he had some type of staph infection. They told us if it had been another day or two, he would not have made it, as the infection was that powerful. He is home now and taking antibiotics intravenously, but he is weak and will take some time to recover.

I am surprised my boss hasn't fired me, for when I am there I am totally distracted. My husband is traveling on business the next two weeks, all my brothers and sisters are out of state and my best friend and spiritual companion is moving to Chicago at the end of the month.

Although I wasn't the one with the prayer request last week, I could sure use them this week.

Blessings to you and I hope to be back before the season is over, but this month will really test me.

Prayers on the way, Twin :)

Thanking God your mom is doing better, and your dad too.

You can do it. I have all the faith in the world in you. You are stronger then you realize. :-)

Prayers up for your mom and strength for you too. That has to be so very hard.
