GREAT NEWS!!

I received GREAT news this morning. Linda's pneumonia is COMPLETELY gone!! The water in her lungs and heart are GONE! Doctor said she is very weak and will need to stay in the hospital until Thursday or Friday!! PRAISE GOD! Thank you everyone for getting the word out for me. The power of prayer is amazing. I am SO HAPPY!!

THANK YOU :o)

Good News!!

They took Linda yesterday to another hospital and put her in ICU. Well, they took her out of ICU this morning and put her in her own room. The nurse said she has improved and no longer needed to be in ICU!!! Praise God. Now we still need all of your prayers. Lupus is awful and she isn't out of the woods just yet. God is GOOD!!

I want to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart. I had someone say we (twin and I) have been through a lot of heartache in our lives and yes, we have. But, look at all the blessings. All you have to do is press a few keys on the keyboard and ask your friends to pray and right away you feel that heavy burden lifting. My blogging friends are the BEST!! We love each and everyone of you.

Have a great weekend and we will keep you posted :o) God Bless all of you.

An Update on my Sweet Friend LINDA

First of all I would like to THANK all of you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers. A special THANK YOU to bj at sweetnothings for starting a button for me. I appreciate all of you that have taken the button to your blog. Fran had suggested the other day that I email Kelly's dad Steve . He is a Pastor. He emailed me back to let me know his WHOLE church was getting ready to pray for Linda. Oh, you have NO idea what that meant to me.

She is now being taken to another hospital. The pneumonia is getting a little better but they need help with the lupus and of course her heart. I don't know a lot about lupus but I know it has no remorse. It attacks anything in its way.

I saw her last night and she was in very good spirits. She is a very strong woman. Always thinking about others. I told her I had all of my blog neighbors praying for her and spreading the word.

Now I need my neighbors more than ever. SHOUT out her name for all to hear. Please, tell everyone to pray for my sweet friend.

And again THANK YOU!

I need you to pray for LINDA

I know I have asked for a lot of prayer this week, but I need some more! My boss who is just a WONDERFUL person isn't doing very well. She has lupus. She is in the hospital with pneumonia and congestive heart failure. This women means the world to me.

My mother passed away 5 years ago from cancer. Fran and I took care of her. It broke our hearts. Instead of taking care of her to get her well we were preparing her for heaven. We took care of her in my home. I was with her when she took her last breath. If you would have asked me 6 months before that if I could step in and do that I would of told you NO! I have learned from all of the losses we have had to endure (my dad, brother, nephew, best friend and others) that there is an inner strength in all of us. I believe it is God holding our hands and perhaps even carrying us in our time of need. Anyway, after my mom died I just wanted to crawl in bed and shut out the world. The only reason I did get out of bed was for my son for he was only 8 at the time. My whole life had changed. Life would never be the same. Then about a year later I got this job. My boss Linda is my kindered spirit. I have told her many times that I think God brought us together. I was in a deep black hole and this women brought me out of it. It was like I came to life again. She reminds me so much of my mom because she is the kindest, sweetest and most giving person I have ever met.

I beg of you to please, get on your knees and pray for my sweet friend. Please, if you can will you please ask others to pray for her too? Add her to your prayer chain at church, tell your friends, your family or add it to your blog. bj over at sweet nothings has made something for your sidebar if you would like to add it I would really appreciate it. I need THE POWER OF PRAYER. Thanks You SO MUCH!
