Continuing to be Sick
We continue to be a house full of sick people. We are all not feeling well - coughing, sneezing, runny noses, sore throats, nausea and vomiting, difficulty sleeping, etc... It has NOT been fun.
Saturday, I took both girls to the doctor. No Ear Infections. Rebekah seems to have Sinusitis, which I guess is to be expected with the radiation she received to her nasal passages. So she is now on Amoxicillin for that. Sarah's just seems to be typical winter virus.
Mommy and Daddy have no energy. It is tough to just try to keep up with the girls and the minimum that needs done. Daddy's computer problems have put him behind and not feeling well, is just making matters worse.
Mommy took Rebekah to speech therapy today along with Sarah. Rebekah seemed to do pretty well. She was working on two word sentences.
While we were out, we saw Maggie's Aunt Kimmy and Maggie's sister Angelina and Maggie's cousin. We chatted for a few minutes. They seem to be doing well. According to Maggie's page, the family is working to help fight against childhood cancer. Please continue to keep her family in your prayers.
Rebekah's hair is starting to grow in. We are seeing a little fuzz on her head. Her right eyebrow and eyelash are coming in and her left eye as a few lashes. It is kind of exciting to see, but yet a little scary as it can be a very visible look at where the radiation has greatly affected her.

'Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength;they shall mount up with wings as eagles;they shall run and notbe weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.' Isaiah 40 v 30-31

Rebekah and family, I want you to know I'm new to your page but will pray for your family. What a sweet little girl, I'm so sorry you are dealing with all of this!! I know the power of prayer and right now that's all we can count on. So just know that you are being lifted up today!!
I am so sorry for all that you are going through. I will be lifting you up in prayer--for God to give you strength, courage, and healing. His love and power are everlasting.
I'm new to your page, too. Rebekah sounds like an amazing little girl. I'm praying for you & your family during this difficult time.
"Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint."
Isaiah 40:30-31
God bless you & yours
The faith and strength of your family shines to the glory of God! I cried reading the post where Rebekah got to take your bracelets off... I pray that you never have to put them on again. And I'm praying that you will be over this bug quickly!
Glory in His holy name; Let the heart of those who seek the Lord be glad. Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face continually. Psalm 105:3,4
Keep looking up! Know that you are being prayed for. May you all start feeling better today.
Blessings to you all.
Praying for His healing hand on you all, that everyone at your home will be well quickly.
hope you guys start feeling better
Sorry to hear that you're all under the weather! :( Hope you're up and at 'em soon! It's so good to hear that Rebekah's doing well! Take care!
I'm sorry to read you all are not feeling well. I will be praying for all your needs.
God Bless.
Sara
You all are in our prayers here in Tennessee and Georgia! Hope that you all will feel God's loving arms around you right now! Peace and rest and health to you all!
How difficult the road of life seems at times. But God WILL provide the strength for each step as we cling to Him. There is no need for Him to give us more than what we need at that very moment, for as we walk forward in that step with Him, it is then that He will give us the strength for the next one.
I am praying for you today. Praying that God will meet you where you are at...tired, frustrated, and overwhelmed. He is there in the midst of all you do in your day. Worshipping God is part of our everyday existance. The birds, trees, and stars worship God just by doing what they were created to do. It is the same for you and I. We are worshipping God when we do what we were created to do. In your case, you were created to care for these precious girls with many needs. Each smile, each time you clean up after they are sick, each time you put in a load of laundry...you are worshipping God...and He is very pleased.
What an example of faithfulness and self-sacrifice you are to me!
I am praying that you all are feeling better soon!
Dear friend, My prayers are with you also . . .
"We went through fire and through water: but Thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place." Psalm 66:12b
I pray that you are all feeling better soon. Continue to cling to Him who cares so much for you.
