I am surrounding you with love and holding you and your loved ones in my heart, thoughts and prayers. Once again thank you for sharing even these difficult struggles in your eloquent, humorous and honest writing. I wish you would consider sharing this one with your physicians and the hospital Director of Nursing. I am in Akron, OH having attending a 4 day workshop course and through the miracle of technology I am able to be connected. Love and prayers, Judith

Prayers are with you, as always. I had 50% of each kidney removed because of cancer in 1997 and have been on blood thinners (because of embolisms) since 1999. Though this has been a difficult and unexpected turn in your career, it is an element that can successful be resolved. Your jottings truly are an inspiration to all.

God’s blessings,
Bob (Mr. Maxine)

I just finished talking to George Frank today and hadn’t read this recent entry. I was telling him that things were looking up – grocery shopping and all! I’ll call him again and let him in on the latest!

I pray that you were able to go home to “Sanctuary” today, to rest and recuperate. You both continue to be in our prayers…God’s love and peace be yours this day!

Irene and Ivan

p.s. Thanks, Heidi for your comments. They are so very much appreciated!

God’s blessings…Jesus loves you…and so do I!…Tom

I’m so sorry to hear about Connie’s kidney, but at least it impacted only a small portion. What a weekend you had! And a poor nursing staff to boot. I hope that Connie gets to go home today to Sanctuary! Maybe there was something in the air — my brother-in-law, Jay Wetterhus, had to be hospitalized on Saturday due to a severe headache, confusion, vision distortion, etc. The EKG and cat scan done on Saturday came back normal, and he was to have an MRI done today. So, we are still waiting to find out what is going on with him.

My brother Gary and I will be traveling on Thursday to Germany for two weeks, so I will not be reading your blogs for a while. But you will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers as we travel around Lutherland. I am especially looking forward to our worship service in Wittenberg next week. “Ein’ feste Burg ist unser Gott”!!!!

Love,
Mindy
