From Judy:

It's Thanksgiving morning. There is so much to be thankful for.

It has been 8 months since we began this journey and it has been quite a ride. When I tell you,I have learned something new everyday, I'm not kidding. Mostly, I have learned alot more about the Bible. I can't believe all the love notes God has written to us, that have been new to me. Where have I been!

I have become very brave. This is not something I went after. It just happened.It has been a gift from God. I think about my cancer everyday. I think about the past,the now,and the future. We are very aware of what I have. We know there is no cure. This is a very rare type of cancer. It always ends in death.
However.......they are learning more about it everyday. Before many years they will find a cure.

In the mean time, I do not intend to just sit around and wait. I am moving on. There are many things I need to do and things I need to try to take care of. Besides.I am not afraid. We have such a great support team behind our family and that is one of the things I am very grateful for this morning. Truly,I can not think about how horrible this would be without YOU!

People always say,'God will give you what you need, when you need it.' Boy,they are not kidding. There is such a sweet peace with Christ. When you have no other place to go and the battle is too big for you, He is there. When the future looks bad and it's too hard to look at it, He is there..... Amazing. Believe me,I did not choose this road and honestly, even today, I wouldn't choose it. However.....it is still quite a ride. And as long as He is driving, am in.

I pray for you, that you will have a peaceful Thankgiving. And no matter what is happening to you, remember,there will always be a morning and there will always be someone that loves you a whole lot more than I do...and I love you alot.
Judy

  2. I am thankful for the years of friendship we have shared. When I think of greeting a new year I am reminded of many past eves playing games and enjoying your company. Where have the years gone?
    As we approach this season of giving know that your love is a gift Bob and I both treasure. Enjoy the holiday season as we anticipate the celebration of the birth of our Lord. He loves you and so do I.
