2.6.07


Chris hasn't needed any oxygen today, but then again she hasn't gotten up from the bed since Sunday night. She is denying that she is sleeping all day. We have started the process of having the girls sleep away from the house, only to protect Haven from having to see something that she shouldn't. We really don't want her to see us having to bathe her mother and help her with normal functions. Right now she just sees her mom as sleeping a lot but talking to her some when Haven enters the room. I know this might sound like a negative post, but now you know some things to pray for. Pray for her sister who is having a harder time than most because her small family is in South Carolina and she is torn on when to come back here and be with her sister. Pray for understanding of other family members who might not understand that it's nothing personal, but if Chris wants something specific then it's my responsibility to make it happen. And of course pray that even though it seems as if there is nothing to celebrate, that we can still find moments throughout the day to celebrate Chris' life and to remember that when we grieve hard that's still part of the celebration.

blessings,
jc

I DON'T KNOW YOU PERSONALLY, BUT I HAD PRAYER WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AT THE HSOPITAL JUST BEORE CHRISTMAS.
WE KNOW IN THIS LIFE WE WILL FACE STORMS, SOME MORE DEVASTATING THAN OTHERS, BUT WE HOLD TO THE PROMISE THAT GOD WILL ALWAYS BE WITH US IN THE STORM. HE WILL NEVER LEAVE US OR FORSAKE US! WHAT A PRIVILEGE TO KNOW THAT.
YOU HAVE OBVIOUSLY MADE SUCH AN IMPACT ON MANY LIVES, FULFILLING YOUR PURPOSE. THAT'S WHAT MATTERS MOST. YOUR STRENGTH AND COURAGE IS REMARKABLE AND SUCH AN INSPIRATION!! MAY GOD STRENGTHEN AND KEEP YOU AND YOUR PRECIOUS FAMILY.

When things on earth seem completely out of control, we must find comfort in knowing that God is completely IN control. You all are continually in mine and Elizabeth's thoughts and prayers.
