I got a good night’s sleep last night for a change. We did not have to set any alarms. I woke up feeling better than I had felt in a while. That’s a good thing because today Kerri and Seth (daughter and son-in-law) came over to help us pack. I still got tired easily, but I had so much energy. Thank God for energy.

 I cut grass for the last time at our house. This is one thing I will miss about leaving the house. That’s not a typo. Whenever I was on the John Deere with my headphones listening to my tunes, all was right with the world. Today, Andre Crouch reminded me that “Through it All” he had learned to trust in Jesus. That’s been my theme song the rest of the day – through it all.

What a blessing Kerri and Seth were to us today. I know they went home tired. I thank God for them and their willingness to help during our time of need.

I had a really good day today. Thank you Jesus. I was able to do a lot. Keeping busy is good.

Joan’s sister, Amy, set up a Prayer Vigil for me. People that I don’t even know who are connected to people I don’t know have signed up. God is so good and so are His people. I am inspired and humbled by the continual outpouring of love and support.  I know our Heavenly Father is pleased when we come together in love.

In John 13:35, Jesus said, “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” You are showing the world whose disciples you are. Thanks to each of you who are loving us with your prayers, support, physical labor, etc.

Some dear friends have offered us their house for the winter while they live in Arizona. Can you believe that? We may need a house for the next few months and God’s people have provided one very close to Parkview Medical Center. Thank you Dave and Darlene.

Our friends Don and Carolyn who own Cold Stone Creamery blessed me with a half-gallon of my favorite ice cream flavor. The cancer makes it hard for me to swallow, but ice cream goes right through. Thanks Don and Carolyn.

Tomorrow (Monday) is a big day. Hopefully Dr. Sharma is able to place a stent in my esophagus to make food swallowing easier for me. I can’t wait to sit down and eat a meal without problems.
