So many things have been going on. My plate has never been this full. And yet with the Grace of God I continue to plug along.
I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I pray that this is a year of many dreams come true for all of you.
My sister had her transplant. The day of the transplant was horrible to watch. She received it via a transfusion. She had some sort of reaction to the red cell protein and my heart broke to watch her go through this. Brook is at the very worst part of the process right now. Please continue to pray. She does have a fever right now and they are trying to get the right antibiotics on board to control this.
Like I said, our plates have been extremely full. My step dad collapsed at home and was rushed to ER. He actually coded twice. His heart is failing him, he was put on a pacemaker and that seems to be working. Chris has been on dialysis for almost six years now awaiting a kidney transplant. His body is really showing signs of deterioration. This is so sad to watch him and my Mother go through.
I have so much more to fill you in on, but again limited time. Every time I think I can blog again, I am pulled away. It does help to check in and record this time in our lives. I thank you all again, for your continued prayer, beautiful prayer messages and texts and emails, it all means so much to me.
I have an address for Brook, if you would like to send her a little card of encouragement email me and I can give you the address.
Last but not least, I entered my I Heart Faces entry over here this week, check out the recent pictures of the kids.

Praying for strength. What kind of transplant did she have?
My prayers are with you, Brook & Chris. I hope things get better soon for Brook. You are the best sister!
My dad is also on dialysis for his kidneys and is fighting liver cancer too, so I know your pain. I will most definitely be praying for you and your family.
Your sister sounds amazingly strong. Her strength is inspiring.
Your photography site looks awesome! I love it.
Praying for your family...
