Friday Update 1/28/05

Thanks to all those who came last night and prayed with us and thanks to all the rest of you who can't be here but are keeping us in your thoughts and prayers. We really needed it! For today, we feel restored and our hope is renewed. That is so often the case, when others come to pray.

The last two weeks we haven't seen any real progress for Scott and at times it does seem like things might be getting worse. Although our faith in God is strong, our hearts get heavy when he's struggling. His doctors don't seem too worried about the lack of progress but we hoped for better. He had his functional MRI today, which will tell us if more surgery could be a possibility, but we won't get the results until later next week. Regardless, in 10 days he'll be getting his regular monthly MRI and that will tell us more about what's happening with the tumors.

On another note, I'm very happy to report that we have a childcare provider for Josepine who is here three days a week. Her name is Quinn and Josephine absolutely adores her! We think she's wonderful too. I knew everything was going to be great the second day Quinn was here. Instead of crying when Scott and I left for his appointments, Josephine was blowing us kisses and waving goodbye. What a blessing!

Blessings to all of you!

Love,
Michele and Scott
