Some little things have happened though that were like, little rays of sunshine---grace gifts from our Lord, so-to-speak.
Anna Claire saying "I love you, daddy" for the first time at the hospital.
The 7th and 8th grade boys going to the altar to pray for Andy on their own initiative.
The church family praying for us as a whole Sunday night.
Diann Waller slipping me $90 unexpectedly, just for meds or whatever.
Our SS class bringing meals and food like crazy! Even taking a collection for hotel money for his parents in case of the need for surgery.
Ricky calling us to assure us that his job will be fine, that he wants Josh to step in in the interim and Andy not to worry financially.
Calls/visit/texts/Facebook comments.
Faith Reinelt heading up getting my house cleaned before Mama and Papa came.
The fact that Leah Plummer works with Dr. Wewars and could help get us in and out to see him last Wednesday without sitting in the waiting room. Her being able to confirm information and to vouch for how much she liked and trusted him to us.
Dr. Wewars--his wife had lymphoma so he knew to look for it and took it seriously. His kind manner and the fact that he is a Christian.
Dr. McAllister (the oncologist) told us to pray in the meantime.
Shea Peters from church was the one to put him to sleep for his needle biopsy--seeing her comforted him with the procedure.
Every single nurse professed to be a believer. Didn't give us an opportunity to witness, but it did give us comfort!
Mama and Papa coming--Mama helping with Juliana.
My Jesus Calling devotional--it could NOT be more on point for what I need right now!
Gods grace truly does abound in these circumstances!! He is good and we pray He receives glory from this situation. I know it could be so much worse, but it's been really hard. I'm so thankful for the initial results being clean, but I'm anxious to know more. I love him so much and just want him to be well again and be able to get on with life as normal --playing with girls, working at church, etc.
