2.4.07


tonight at about 10:30 Chris asked to have some oxygen. she started breathing heavy at 9 and so we are waiting for the hospice drug reps to deliver some. it should be here around midnight. we are with her on the couch and her fever has stayed at or near 105 for a couple of hours. pray for comfort, pray for clarity that all will be well and most of all praise God that all though my heart is ripped open, God is placing Himself in those parts that need filling and i have experienced a peace tonight that this blog or any video i put together would do justice. i don't understand it, i just welcome it and feel blessed to have the community around us that we do.

till the end,
jc

Chris and JC...have been praying, and posted prayer request on a blog I frequent. Wanted you to know I saw this tonight and have been praying. Hope you have received the oxygen by now. Praying through the night with you.

Just want you to know that you have many brothers and sisters in the Lord lifting you up in prayer tonight.
None of us know what to say or how to say it...we simply pray that Jesus is with you and your family and trust Him to care for you all.

Few words but much heart as we join with you and your loved ones. May the strong and abiding presence of Jesus be your comfort through the touch of those around you.

We heard about you and your precious family on another blog that Sarah posts on. I lost my brother in law David (my sister's husband) last year to ALS.

He was a believer in Jesus and I know I'll see him again. But it still hurts.

I know that Jesus will be with you through this very difficult time. He demonstrated His love and goodness to our family in our great need. I know He will do the same for you.

Hang in there friend. Many are praying even now.

Chris,
I LOVE YOU!! You are such a strong person. God gave you Psalm 91 last year as your life verse hold on to that! He says, 'You'll stand untouched...He ordered his angels to guard you...' He says, 'I'll give you the best of care...' Chris, God is holding you, his precious child, in his arms right now!! He loves you so much!! What a beautiful thing.
JC,
I am praying for you and your family! I know God is carrying you all through this. I praise God through this storm. One day you will see the puzzle and understand everything. As for now we have to trust him and thank him for everyday we have with Chris. God bless you and your family. I love you!!
In Him,
Kim

chris and JC,
You are deeply loved. Yesterday our children at Ecclesia were worshipping through art during our service, and just before I went up to preach Hanna gave me many works of art. They were al prayers for Chris, JC, and Haven. She was leading all the children to pray for Chris. I could barely begin my sermon as the tears started to pour.

much love,
Chris Seay

Your friend Kim Mitchell has been faithful to keep people posted - I must agree with your precious Haven - cancer is stupid!! My 4y.o. son has cancer and we started this journey in October 2006. I do find comfort in believing that our Father in Heaven is as disgusted by cancer as we all are - it is not of Him. I don't even pretend to comprehend any of this. I am learning that the ONLY guarantee we have is that He will never leave us, He is with us at all times - no matter what storm we are enduring. I pray that each of you are and will continue to experience your Father's presence in an unexplainable way. Praying right now .....

Chris and JC,
I’ve wanted to say the ‘right’ thing or do ‘something more’. My family and I have prayed throughout your sickness, but even more since the news right before Christmas. You and your family became a part of our daily lives through our prayers. It was hard to know what to pray, but did so as our hearts lead us for either strength…healing…peace…and God’s will. As a parent, your journey reminded me again of how precious time is with the family and a continued relationship with the Lord. You have been so strong; I don’t feel I would have done as well. Know that our hearts are hurting for you, J.C. and your two precious girls. We continue to pray for peace… for you and your family.
