Update

Hello all:
Hopefully, by tomorrow, emails will be sent directly to you from my address. Our command control manager, Jonathan, arrives tomorrow afternoon with his lovely wife, Megan. Jonathan has assured me that he will get this straightened out.

Today was another beautiful day in the neighborhood. Jack slept until 11 AM. I think he is enjoying the lack of demands on him. He said after his sitting down while showering that he might start sitting in there for 2 hours. I am not sure what he would look like after 2 hours but who knows, it may be the next cure for wrinkles.

Another blessing came our way today. I mentioned, I was redoing kitchen cabinets and counters. These 2 wonderful El Salvadorian men installed the counters. One of them said his mother was diagnosed 10 years ago with a brain tumor. She had been blinded and confined to a wheelchair as a result. After drugs were administered, she was healed. She is no longer blind or in a wheelchair. She does have some problems but very few. She is alive and well. I told him of how we are trusting God to care for us in this situation. He got a big smile on his face. He said it is the only way. When he left, he turned and said don't stop trusting God, it is the only thing that works. Can you begin to imagine all of the opportunities that the Lord is providing us? It is difficult to remember them all.

Jack is stronger each day but still needs assistance doing a few things. I have to force myself not to help him; but he keeps me out of his way. He frequently weeps when another call or card or email arrives. As Jonathan so beautifully put it, how can you not weep when all of this divine love is being poured out on you. Wow! Oh Lord, my God, how great thou art!

If I do not return phone calls in a timely way, please forgive me. Sometimes, I am answering 2 phones, answering the doorbell, etc. I am trying not to get over extended. I am working from home mostly with some appointments in the office. My clients have been fabulous and very supportive for which I am so greatful. Please remember Dana and Karen, my two wonderful staff people who are floating the boat right now.

Blessings and many thanks to all of you for your sweetness and care,
