This is a public "diary" of a family whose little girl started a battle with inoperable cancer in April 2005. In December 2007 our house burned down. And in September 2009 Mommy was diagnosed with a terminal disease (a genetic form of ALS) that took her to Heaven in July, 2011, leaving Daddy and two young girls to make it on their own. Over several years of ups and downs, you will get into our hearts, minds and souls as we share joys and sorrows. It can sometimes be very difficult to read. We hope it is also uplifting. Please find joy in what you read here.

Another Morning

Another Morning.  Last night was very long.  We, okay most of the time it was mommy, were/was up many times.  Rebekah continues to not tolerate food for a continued period.  We are on short bursts beginning and ending with lots of anti-nausea medicine.  

Yesterday she slept most of the day.  Frustrating was that she would be doing just fine while she was sleeping and then wake up, almost like she was startled awake.  She would then be screaming and thrashing around until she would go back to sleep in mommy’s arms.  

We have now had our dear baby Sarah back for a couple of days and are very thankful that Sarah is at least sleeping through the night.  

Yesterday Katie came and did laundry.  Heather brought shopping stuff.  Grandma A came much of the day to help baby sit.  Grandma M brought dinner.  And Brad and Dinah came along (brought) Grandma M and then helped to put up some more trim on the outside of the house that we started back in the beginning of August.  It was SO MUCH help and we are SO thankful.  The only question we have, however, is with all that help why do we feel so tired?

Please pray specifically for our continued strength, finances and for some needs in our internet access. With regard to the internet access we have asked for some help from one of our few choices for high speed access which, after being at the hospital and now home, I have realized is necessary to keep the pictures coming.  I can’t edit those pages on my slow lines at home and when we are keeping those up to date we get LOTS of hits and support!

This is the day that the Lord has made...Let us REJOICE and be glad in it.

Today we are praying for times of rejoicing, times of praise. We are praying that there will be moments of complete rest and revival. We are so very thankful that people are coming around and doing those tasks that are necessary to keep your home running, laundry, shopping and etc.

May the Light and Love of Jesus shine brightly on the Adams family today, may Rebekah's be nurished, may mommy be comforted and find rest. May Chi Chi be full of smiles and an easy child to care for today. May daddy be the cornerstone to hold this dear little family up.

Prayers, blessings, peace

From my husband, Rob:

Dear Heavenly Father, please be with Rebekah's family, parents and sissy. Inspire readers and supporters in prayer for this family to also pour out financial support for them and also inspire the ISP to give them a discounted rate in light of their desperate need for help and support.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Amen.
