Thursday's are like any other day...

some of my old PC lunch room friends will remember that saying...
We had a good good night! thanks for praying! the rash on her feet quieted down..and she slept, a lot! I know this was an answer to prayer!! She is still sleeping this morning, and i'm heading down to get breakfast before breakfast is not an option. (Yesterday my entire days food consumption consisted of biscuits and gravy, blueberry muffin, rice krispie bar, french fries, a chocolate shake, and 4 peanut butter cup cookies ((thankyou Nana Judy!! those are the BEST!))
I'm hoping to show the dietitians here today that I can eat a little more healthy today..
funny, how my daily food choices have now become the biggest decisions i make all day...i can't even put a lot of effort into deciding what to wear..it's just the next and cleanest thing in the bag..

We're hoping to have Baby Georgia join us for the day here on the 8th floor, while our nanny Laurie gets a play day in Pella. At least, that's our 'plan' and you all know how me and the word plan have gotten along for the past year...

Val is scheduled for another chest xray today, and we will attempt the next Gleevac pill with today's lunch. PLEASE pray again that there will be NO side effects to taking this medication!!
And of course, if it would be God's will to take this all away now and return Val to miraculous health at home with her baby daughter...I'd be way cool with that too..

Love from the 8th floor
Bev

Bev, Val and all the family - just wanted to send a note of love and prayers - may you feel God's strength each and every moment and know that His special grace is with you. We hope and pray that Val will not be so sick with the meds. I know God is using baby Georgia to bring love and joy to your hearts and lives. He is so great with how He gives and gives to us . Just a little note to share with you is this
Love never gives up
Never loses faith
Is always hopeful
And ENDURES!
God bless you all - with love and prayers. Marilyn Vos

Bev,
So glad you have this blog going...we just got back Monday so I've now finally had the chance to catch up on the last two weeks!! My heart goes out to all of you even across the miles! Wish I could BE THERE! Congrats on your newest little granddaughter - Jessa and Georgia will have lots of fun in the years ahead!! We praise God with you for your two little miracles! Our hearts go out to Val as any new mommie wants nothing more than to be with and hold her baby! We pray that there will be NO side affects from the new drug and that Val will be able to rest and heal! We know that when there is only one set of footprints, that that is when He carries you...and He will INDEED carry you all! Please give Val our love and prayers!
With much love,
Kim VB and family
