...barely! This is a very tiring experience! We are so grateful for the food,prayers, calls, visits,etc.
Sunday we plan on leaving from hangar D-30 at Falcon Field at about 1 pm for a 2.5 hour trip to North Little Rock Airport with a planned potty stop at Elvis's old stomping grounds of Tupelo, Ms. We will be flying our RV-10 which we recently finished. (See http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/rv-10int.htm for pix and specs.) My partners and friends have the RV-10 (Gracie) all tuned up and ready to go.{Thanks guys!}
Deb is in pain all the time. She has an assortment of meds which seem to cloud her mind the more they relieve pain. So, she has to chose between clear thinking or more pain relief. Bummer!
Fear of the unknown is real. Just what are we going to be going thru the rest of our lives? Will it hurt? Will Deb loose her beautiful(and natural at age 6o) hair? Can we afford it? Will we be able to enjoy the two grand-daughters now due shortly? More is unknown than known.
We are so hopeful about finding answers this week. Getting Deb's spine fractures treated will be the highlight for us. With her current situation I can care for her: any more fractures and I might not be able to care for her.
So, you've had a glimpse into my pate. What do you think?

Thank you God for all the seemingly little things. We wake up breathing, we clearly see and feel the love of God mirroring off of our family and friends, we laugh and we cry. We acutely understand love even better than before and we are so grateful to those who shower us with it. Even in our suffering and brokenness we sometimes can sense your presence and know that the most important thing in life is our relationship with you. Please grant us the strength and courage to face the whatever every day with faith and hope knowing that you will provide for all of our needs and that you will always be with us. For you Deb, Vern and family, we pray that you receive good care and wonderful news from the doctors in Little Rock. May you know God's magnificent love and grace everyday and may you grow to trust Him even more. With love and understanding, Larry, Michelle and Gillespie family.

I hope you receive good news from the doctors in Arkansas. This is a huge challenge in your lives and I will continue to keep Deb and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Remember Philippians 4:13 KJV "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me."
ReplyDeleteI think you are awesome :) I'm keeping Mom up to speed and all of you are in our prayers.
