Update on Dad,
The update on Dad is not what I had hoped for, but it is what it is, and he has confessed Jesus as his Saviour, so much relief is felt due to that assurance because no matter what happens now, I will know without doubt that Dad is okay. Dad is basically in liver failure, another lesion has appeared on his lung, his blood is too thin, his right lung is not working, really nothing is working right, his little body is just tired,chemo has paid its toll on him. Right now my prayer is for his comfort, I hope he still has the opportunity and time to enjoy some quality of life, but we could be looking at just months so they say. God is in control though so what His will for Dad is will be what happens, it's the only thing which at this point I can count on. I have spent the past three days at the hospital and Mom has accompanied me because it makes me so nervous, and I like to have a second set of ears in the room when the doctors and nurses tell us things, as I have to relay it to other family members. My Uncle Trippe spends mornings there and comes back up at night, I feel so bad for Trippe, he lost his Dad (my grandfather) to cancer, his oldest brother (my Uncle Danny) to cancer and liver failure, and now Dad's life is threatned, plus their Mom (my Mamaw) is in really bad shape with congestive heart failure and is also on oxygen, she has lived longer than any of us thought she would, so you can imagine how scared and sad he must feel. Please pray for Dad and the family. Your prayers are so appreciated. Thanks to everyone for their concern and kind words of support.

Prayer Request,
Please pray for my Dad as he is in the hospital now. It is uncertain at this time what is actually going on with him, a host of things have been mentioned, I've heard dehydration, electtolyte imbalance, infection, possible liver problems. He is extremley jaundiced, and he is totally out of it, I thought it might be pain meds, but the nurses said he is not on any at this time. Please pray for his comfort and for them to find out what is going on so he can be treated accordingly. I'm very saddened over his present state, I ask for you to also pray for me to be a source of comfort and help to him in the way he needs it. At this point I really don't know what to do.

Valentine Surprise,
Johnny and Bubba cooked dinner for Mom and me tonight for Valentines Day. They made chicken, shrimp, and veggie kabobs. I thought it was very sweet, it was also yummy.

Thank you Aunt Beth!
Aunt Beth scored high with Anna Kate tonight, look at the Valentine goodies she brought her. Anna Kate was VERY impressed. Her next stop was to Cousin Malory's. I remember she always did things like this for Holly and me when we were growing up too, a kid remembers being made to feel special.

My Surprise,
My abduction was a wonderful surprise! Bubba planned an over night stay at 'The Chattanoogan Hotel'. When we arrived he had arranged for a spa gift basket to be placed in the room to inform me we were scheduled for massages at 6:00 PM, he took me to dinner at TGI Friday's and afterwards to Starbucks. This morning we had breakfast there as it was included in the package. How nice to get away, relax, and sleep in. Check out the hotel and spa, it was a treat.

Our Superbowl Sunday
Mom, Anna Kate, and I decided to spend Superbowl Sunday going to Chili's for dinner (like chips and salsa, chocolate molten cake, we're bad), and take Anna Kate to see the 'BEE Movie' at the cheap seat theater tonight. It was cute and Anna Kate enjoyed it. Afterwards we decided to go to Walmart to grocery shop, I don't know why we torture ourselves and go there, but it is cheaper. An Afro American woman was obviously mad at the girls with her because she was cussing, yelling, and raising cain about something at the check out line next to us, and contined to do so at the top of her lungs all the way to they door yelling back at them while they were still in line, she had I don't even know how many kids with her...,AK was looking like, 'HELP, what is wrong with THIS WOMAN!?' Mom told the cashier she'd appreciate them calling security because she didn't appreciate her granddaughter being exposed to such language and outbursts of anger, I was like 'oh no', but they left the store, all the children, and what looked to be older teen age girls with her. We were thinking how loud they probably were arguing all the way home, and when they got home, etc.., takes all kinds to make a world. CRAZY! So how was your weekend?Friday, February 1, 2008
