Blood Infection??

Val woke up this morning with a 102* temperature, chills, nausea, and pain. My mom, Nancy, took her to the hospital where they will evaluate the situation. Val said that her symptoms indicate a blood infection and that it will take two days to determine that, but during that time she will remain in the hospital.

Pray for Val duing her time in the hospital. Pray that the doctor's can quickly determine what is wrong and treat it quickly as well. Pray that her hostipal stay does not exceed those two days as she would much rather be at home. Pray that her time there is comfortable for her and that her pain, and nausea can be controlled. Pray for Chris and the boys and my parents during these days.

Pray that the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY wraps his loving arms around Val and if it be His will take this cancer from her body. We know he is able to do it.

Your prayers are an amazing blessing as they glorify God and encourage Valerie.

Julie (Val's sister)

My beautiful Friend...

I could not believe what I was reading today - just being with you yesterday at you house hanging out and praying, you would never think there was anything wrong! Hang in there, my friend, and don't be afraid... your good Lord is holding you in His hand, and He will never leave you or forsake you. I agree with Ginny's prayers, May our Lord hold you ever so close, and YES, we are looking forward to hearing how God will bring your healing and His name will be glorified in all the earth! Chris, I hope your feeling better... I will be praying for you too! I read something on Sam Johnson's Blog - a saying of Mother Teresa's: "I know that God will not put more on me than I can handle, I just wish he didn't trust me so much!" I know I have thought that thought so many times, as I am sure you all are thinking now... but please rest assured that although we don't understand His ways, they are always better in the end... I pray God's healing rain upon your family tonight..

Let me know if I can help in any way whatso ever...

Love always

Dear Val and Family...

I am down on my knees praying for you dear friend! I just want you to close your eyes and visualize our beautiful Lord just holding you...it is such a peaceful and beautiful picture...and the best part of it all...is that He is actually doing so! And as soon as the clock strikes 9 am...I am driving my rear end over to grab Don at church and getting him started praying too!

We love you Val!

Dear Val and family,
I was out running errands and this song came on. I immediately thought of you. I had to come home and send you the words.

The Calmer of the Storm
When everything is wrong
The day has passed and nothing's done
And the whole world seems against me
When I'm rolling in my bed, there's a storm in my head
I'm afraid of sinking in despair.
CHORUS:
Teach me, Lord to have faith
In what you're bringing me, will
Change my life and bring you glory &
There on the storm I am learning to let go
Of the will that I so long to control
There may I be in your arms eternally
I thank you, Lord, you are the calmer of the storm.
You rebuke the wind and the waves
Once again I find I'm amazed & the power of your will
Cuz I'm a child of little faith
I feel the wind and forget your grace
And you say, "Peace, be still."
There on the storm I am learning to let go
The white wave's high, it's crashing o'er the deck
And I don't know where I go
Where are you Lord, is my ship going down?
The mast is gone so throw the anchor
Should I jump and try to swim to land?
There on the storm, teach me God to understand
Of the Will that I just cannot control
There may I see all you love protecting me
I thank you Lord, you are the calmer of the storm.
Val, may you rest assured that He is indeed the calmer of the storm. With love and continues prayer, Ginny

My dear friend Val,

You have been heavy on my heart today. I am very sorry to hear that you had to be admitted to the hospital yesterday. I know you would rather be home. Rest while you are there, and know that the nurses and physicians are there to help you get better so that you can go home. They will get to the bottom of this. The broad spectrum antibiotics will clear up whatever is creating this infection.
I pray that Chris receives positive results from his tests and that he is feeling better too.

I miss you and look forward to seeing you soon

Love,

Marianne
