Everyone has those times when their hearts feel heavy...... At present there is alot that seems to be weighing on mine. I know I can only pray and leave it to God. I do ask your prayers for these people: My sister had surgery close to 3 mos. ago to remove tumor from her colon. Infection set in at incision site. It has been a long ordeal for her though the "hole" is closing and healing. they put in the tube for chemo yesterday. Pray that if any trace of the cancer was missed the chemo will arrest it. Also that she will have no adverse side affects. She has suffered so much already. A young man who went to school with my daughter was arrested yesterday for abducting two young woman, taking them to a hotel and then tried to force them to have sex with him. He was such a nice young man. Alcohol and drugs has led him in and out of jail, ect. He will probably face more prison time. Was told today when talking of this latest development that when he was young he had been molested by a family freind. I KNOW his parents and they have done everything to get him help...... Put in a good word to HPs/God that he will accept what he himself has done and will end this path he has chosen. Lastly, a 30yr old acquaintence was killed in auto accident last night from our small town. He was only married 1 mo and recently found out he was to be a father. I know he drank, HOWEVER, it is unclear whether it was speed or something else that caused the accident. So much in 24 hrs! It is all soooooo sad! May God hear our prayers to help these people and their families. Wanda
Wow Wanda!!! These are days that none of us need to have, yet serve in some strange way to make us stronger human beings. That's probably NOT what you wanted to hear right now but I do hope some good comes from all of this.
Good thoughts and hopes a many are heading your way and to those affected by these circumstances...Tim

Damn, sometimes things just happen all at once, and that's when we find out just how resilient we are. You never know how strong you are until put to the test. I am so sorry you have all this sadness going on, and I will most certainly light a candle and pray that with each of these happenings, everyone will have the strength and inner peace to get thru it. Make sure to take care of your needs, too, Wanda. Be blessed, Chris

It often seems that there is too much of the bad things happening in life, but I have found that experiences like this make me stronger in the long term.
Thoughts and prayers are with people affected by these events. And, my thoughts and prayers are with you, too.
Take care,
Carol

Appreciative for all the support and love you all are giving me. though I am sad I know I'll make it through. the others whom prayers were requested for........they are the ones who REALLY need them. Yeah, Phil, there is a whole bunch of sad "shit" in this world and not a thing we can do about alot of it except hope and pray these situations will get better. Oh yeah, also do our part by not contributing to those things with our individual words or actions. Again...... thank you all Wanda
