Hi Everyone,
Today Mom had a good day! After a 36 hour nap, she awoke this morning and kept her eyes open most of the day. Dad was able to get a little jello in her, so he had a great day! Today really supported the fact that she has been resting in comfort.
What a tough walk this is - but we know that God is still holding us in His hands.
Thank you for the many kind words and support that we have received in so many ways. Patti and I are constantly reminded of how wonderful our mother truly is (Dad too, but we don't want him to get the big head!). We love to hear funny and touching stories of how she did something small, yet a great impact was made. She really just wanted to help others and minister through her talents.
On a different note, those of you who have visited the hospital have probably had the joy of meeting our dear friends Carol and Allen. We love them dearly and have been able to lean on them so heavily. Happy Birthday, Allen!
May God give each of you peace and guidance today and every day. God is good...All the time....
Love,
Laura
P.S. - Liz, thanks for your email! I got it!

Laura, Patti and family, I am an RN who works with Care Connection for Children (housed beside Washington County Health Dept.) I have been following Marlene's blog thru co-workers. God's grace is indescribable. YOU have been such an inspiration to me, even in your valley. Please know that I have been praying and will continue to pray for your family. May God give you peace thru your suffering. Months into my grieving after the death of my sixteen-year-old son, I found that his daily devotional calendar on Derek's dresser had been turned over the day he died. Derek died in a tragic car accident four years ago. The scripture that was left for us all: "I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us." Romans 8:18
God spoke to me and to us all.
In Christ there are no goodbyes,
Diane Carter
