A PATH THAT WE EACH MUST WALK

I looked at this picture closely. So many friends joined in hands as they walk the

path home or to school or just walking for fun.

When you are that age, no one worries that their walk might end in disaster. They are

living in the moment and having fun.

When Amy was little and all her friends...mostly boys...would play, I never looked

at her or her friends and wondered.......now which one of these friends will

die of cancer....which one will die in a car accident...which one will become an

alcoholic or drug addict...which one will be raped...which one will become a

child abuser....who would die serving his country on foreign soil or on this land

as in 911...as a missionary on foreign soil...a police officer in the line of duty...

I never did. I knew which one was a comic....which one liked the girls too much...

which one would probably run for mayor...who would become a teacher

I remember Dr. Hensley, Amy's pediatric oncologist saying after Amy was

in remission, "Lightening doesn't strike twice, Debbie. Amy will be fine."

Then I read a story the other day about a man that had been struck 3 times!

THERE IS A PATH WE MUST EACH WALK.

THAT WALK IS UNIQUE TO EACH OF US.

EVEN THOSE WHO ARE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO LIVE IN EXCESS OF 80 PLUS

YEARS AND LIVE THE "GOOD LIFE"...THEIR PATH WAS UNIQUE TO ONLY THEM.

ONE OF OUR FELLOW BLOGGERS......TERRY....

http://terrytreasures.blogspot.com/

needs our prayers. I had never met her before but she is a wife, mother, and

loves to quilt.

TERRY'S HUSBAND WAS HURT IN AN ACCIDENT AT WORK, 2 DAYS AGO.

A BULLDOZER RAN OVER HIM AND HIS LEG WAS TRAPPED. THEY HAD TO

AMPUTATE HIS RIGHT LEG BELOW THE KNEE. YES, THE ACCIDENT COULD

HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE BUT WITH AN AMPUTATION, FOR YEARS THERE IS

PHANTOM PAINS. HE IS IN A HOSPITAL AN HOUR FROM WHERE THEY LIVE.

TERRY MUST GET THE CHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND THEN DRIVE TO THE

HOSPITAL AND THEN BE BACK HOME BEFORE THE CHILDREN GET OUT OF

SCHOOL. THEY NEED OUR PRAYERS.

A LADY FROM MY COUSIN'S CHURCH, LOST HER 26 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER

IN A CAR WRECK.

THERE IS A PATH WE EACH MUST WALK. NO, I DON'T LIKE THE PATH I

AM ON RIGHT NOW. I WANT TO TAKE OFF RUNNING AND NEVER STOP.

I AM ANGRY THAT MY DAUGHTER HAS BEEN STRUCK BY CANCER TWICE.

WHEN SHE WAS A YOUNG CHILD WITH CANCER, I DIDN'T LIKE THE PATH.

AND I WAS FURIOUS EVERY TIME A LITTLE CHILD WENT HOME TO BE WITH

THE LORD. I WANTED THEM ALL TO LIVE. I WANTED THE PAIN TO BE

GONE FROM THEIR PARENTS' EYES. WE HAD A SUPPORT GROUP.

IT WAS CALLED A CIRCLE OF FRIENDS.

THAT IS WHAT WE ARE HERE IN BLOG LAND...A CIRCLE OF FRIENDS.

WE ALL KNOW THERE IS A PATH THAT WE EACH MUST WALK THAT IS

UNIQUE TO EACH OF US......BUT WE ARE THERE TO PRAY...TO SEND CARDS...

TO HELP IN ANY WAY WE CAN THAT WILL HELP THE JOURNEY DOWN

THE PATH EASIER, THAT WE ARE NOT ALONE, THAT GOD LOVES US,

AND JOY WILL EVENTUALLY RETURN.

THE JOY OF THE LORD IS OUR STRENGTH.

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE CARDS FOR AMY.

CAROL B. YOU MADE ME CRY WITH JOY. THAT IS SOMETHING I WILL

TREASURE FOREVER. GOD BLESS YOU. GOD HAS BEEN SO KIND

UPDATE ON AMY...weight has dropped to 58 pounds, She continues to throw up, she can no

longer walk, we can barely manage her pain. Her friend Leila came again

yesterday afternoon at 5pm and stayed until 9pm. Amy would not take any

pain medicine as she didn't want to sleep while Leila was here and it took

until 5:00am today for her pain to ease up.

THE FOLLOWING ALSO NEED PRAYER......

Amy, Leila and Korbie, Andrew, Ashley,Bill and Kerrie, Baby Girl Simran, born 10 weeks

early--a friend of Marydon's,Momma B and her husband, Doris and Richard, Patricia,

Jean and Bill, Monte and Sondra, Teresa, Archee, Brandon, Tammy, Jennifer, Madonna,

Joyce, Connie, Sally, Kristie, Katie, Jamie, Donetta, Terry, Sarah, Roy and Elisabeth,

Megan and Richie, Richard and Debbie, Don, Tom, John, Melt, AJ and Irene, Cecelia,

Jacob,Heidi, Sherry and Tony as they travel to Oklahoma, Marydon, Suzanne,

Jay, Dennis, Patty, Sally, Becca, Tawna and Mike, Cass and Will

I THANK MY GOD EVERY TIME I REMEMBER YOU.

ANNA BETH COMES FOR A VISIT

AS YOU ALL KNOW AMY, MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER HAS BEEN

BLESSED WITH MANY, MANY BEAUTIFUL CARDS. THEY MEAN EVERY-

THING TO HER. I HAVE BEEN HESITANT TO TELL ABOUT THE GIFTS

SHE HAS RECEIVED AS I WANT "EVERYONE" TO KNOW HOW SPECIAL THEY

ARE FOR SENDING CARDS. WE IN NO WAY THOUGHT PEOPLE WOULD

SEND GIFTS AS SOME OF YOUR HAND MADE CARDS ARE GIFTS IN AND OF

THEMSELVES AND ESPECIALLY THE CARDS MADE BY THE CHILDREN....

THE YOUNGEST HAS BEEN 3 1/2 YEARS OLD.

A BOX CAME THE OTHER DAY AND I JUST HAVE TO SHARE THE LETTER

THAT WAS ON THE INSIDE OF THE BOX:

Dear Debbie, Amy, & Family,

In some sense I feel like a total stranger, and in other ways I feel as if I

have known the Ragan family for a long time...It is the lovely writing you do,

Debbie sharing your journey in such an inspirational way.

I am a Grandmother that is raising my ten year old granddaughter and

wanted to share with her some of your Mother's thoughts. I explained

Amy, that you were not feeling very well and what could we do to make

your day just a bit happier. Alexey Rae disappeared for the longest while to

her bedroom. I could hear a little noise, boxes being moved around in her

closet and she reappears with the biggest grin possible. Held in her hands

were two precious items that she cherishes and has hung on her pink

Christmas tree for the last four years. They were crafted from the loving

& talented hands of Rebecca from A Gathering Place.

"So, Alexey are you going to part with these," I ask?

"Oh Grandma, Amy needs a Pink Heart, that shows LOVE and an Angel

to watch over her. We can't send the Angel to Enid, though without a name.

My favorite name is ANNA BETH.

Do you think Amy will like that?"

I assured Alexey Rae that Amy would smile, big time.

Again Alexey disappears and comes back with part of her

allowance money.

"Grandma, can you get Amy a really beautiful card, and try and

find one with Angels...maybe one that sparkles? When Amy gets

the letter and card, her Mom needs to hold it up for her.

"Why," I ask.

"Because Grandma we will be there in spirit, and since you are

older you get to choose which hand of Amy's you want to hold,

and I will hold her other hand. Do you think she will feel the LOVE?

Well, Grandma what if she can't feel my hand, then what?"

Her eyes started to tear up, and I assured her Amy will feel the LOVE

in her Heart.

A bit later after Alexey reorganized her thoughts, her one last concern

was "I know that God is a really busy man, and I need to make sure he

doesn't forget to visit Amy and check up on her!"

Again, I offered her my assurance that God is Love and

God is everywhere. We just need to remember to let him in our

hearts.

I do hope that this message offered through the eyes and heart of a

ten year old will make you smile today. Big Texas Hugs to the

Ragan Family.

Blessings,

Carol Brannum & 'Lil Ms. Alexey Rae

I DID NOT TAKE A PICTURE OF ANNA BETH, THE ANGEL OR THE

PINK HEART...YOU KNOW IF REBECCA MADE THE ORNAMENTS

HOW THEY ARE HER DELICIOUS TRADE MARK PINK,

BATHED IN GLITTER

THAT LOOKS AS IF IT CAME FROM HEAVEN AND BELIEVE ME,

ALEXEY RAE TOOK BEAUTIFUL CARE OF THEM...THEY LOOKED

BRAND NEW TO BE 4 YEARS OLD (and plug...plug...it says of the

work of my beautiful Rebecca from A Gathering Place...wink...wink)

I WANTED THIS TO BE ABOUT A 10 YEAR OLD GIRL WHO GAVE

THE BEST SHE HAD, SO MY DAUGHTER WOULD FEEL THE LOVE.

I WANTED EVERYONE TO SEE ALEXEY, NOT WHAT SHE GAVE

(and believe me I know it was a sacrifice for her)

ALEXEY RAE, LET ME TELL YOU, AMY FELT THE LOVE, I FELT

THE LOVE, HER DAD FELT THE LOVE, HER AUNT SHERRY, HER

GRANDMA, HER ONLY BROTHER RICHIE FELT THE LOVE BUT

FOREMOST.....GOD FELT THE LOVE.

GOD IS SO PROUD OF YOU ALEXEY. WHEN YOU SHOW SUCH

KINDNESS TO SOMEONE LIKE AMY, YOU ARE REPRESENTING GOD

AND IT MAKES HIM SOOOO VERY HAPPY.

WHAT AMY AND I HAVE DONE FOR YEARS IS KEEP A

PRAYER JOURNAL. EVERY NIGHT BEFORE WE GO TO BED, WE

WRITE A LETTER TO GOD AND TELL HIM OUR FEELINGS

AND WHO WE ARE PRAYING FOR AND SOMETHING THAT

HAPPENED THAT DAY WE ARE THANKFUL FOR. WE WOULD

ALWAYS READ A CHAPTER IN PSALMS AND PROVERBS AND

WRITE DOWN OUR FAVORITE VERSE.

I AM THANKFUL FOR YOU ALEXEY RAE.

I TELL YOU WE WERE OVER WHELMED WITH JOY.

AMY CONTINUES TO GET 12-14 CARDS A DAY AND HAS RECEIVED 5

PACKAGES THIS WEEK.

STARTING YESTERDAY SHE COULD HARDLY WALK TO THE

RESTROOM. HER FEET ARE TURNING INWARD AND SHE TRIES TO

STEP HIGH...TODAY IT WAS ALL MY HUSBAND COULD DO TO

GET HER DOWN THE HALL AND SHE ONLY WEIGHS 60 POUNDS.

HER FOOT DROP IS SEVERE AND SHE TRIES TO FALL BACKWARDS.

SHE HAS A BEDSIDE COMMODE THAT HOSPICE BROUGHT AND

WE WILL JUST PLACE HER ON THAT NOW AND NOT RISK A FALL.

SHE CONTINUES TO BE NAUSEATED AND THROWS UP AT LEAST

ONCE A DAY. WE ARE SO VERY THANKFUL IT IS NOT MORE.

AS BAD AS HER CONDITION LOOKS TO THE NATURAL EYE,

SHE CONTINUES TO FIGHT TO LIVE AND GLORY TO GOD, WE

HAVE A HEALING JESUS.

MY COUSIN SUZIE AND I WERE TALKING AND SHE SAID

AMY HAS THE SPIRIT OF DAVID...the cancer is goliath.

THAT cancer HAS BEEN HIT AT THE ROOTS WITH HER STONE,

THE PROMISES OF GOD.

IT IS A FACT THAT ONE DAY WE WILL ALL DIE. AMY IS SO VERY

WEAK BUT SHE IS STILL BATTLING WITH EVERYTHING SHE HAS.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS, CARDS, AND GIFTS.

SHE IS IN "DESPERATE" NEED OF A MIRACLE.

EVERYONE OF YOU, ARE BEAUTIFUL, AWESOME, LOVING, AND

JUST ALL AROUND WONDERFUL PEOPLE.

YOU PAID CLOSE ATTENTION TO MY SISTERS' POST AND THERE

ARE PADDED BICYCLE PANTS COMING IN THE MAIL. PLEASE,

DON'T ANYONE ELSE SEND PANTS. I KNOW THERE ARE OTHER

PEOPLE IN NEED.

THERE IS A NEW YOUNG MAN I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT

THAT IS IN THE BATTLE OF HIS LIFE. HIS NAME IS ANDREW.

YOU CAN CLICK ON HIS PICTURE AND IT WILL TAKE YOU TO

HIS MOTHERS' BLOG. (I HAVE BEEN CAREFUL PUTTING UP

PICTURES AFTER WE WERE SCAMMED BY THE ONE YOUNG MAN'S

STORY THAT WAS ALL MADE UP.)

PLEASE EMEMBER THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE IN PRAYER....AMY,

LEILA AND KORBIE, ASHLEY, SALLY, BECCA, ROY AND ELISABETH,

TRACI'S MOTHER WON HER BATTLE WITH CANCER AND WENT HOME

TO BE WITH JESUS...HER FAMILY NEEDS SUCH PRAYER, SHERRY'S FOOT,

JEAN AND BILLY, PATRICIA, KIPPIE, LADY KATHERINE, KIMBERT,

JAY AND SUZANNE, BOBBY, RICHARD, CASS, WILL, DORIS AND

RICHARD, SHERRY'S NIECE, THE VICTIMS OF THE FLOODING IN

GEORGIA AND THE ONES' WHO HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES, KERRIE

"WE GAVE OUR HEARTS TO THE LORD"

YOU MAY GOOGLE CHICKASHA, OKLAHOMA DAILY NEWSPAPER AND READ ABOUT THE

STORY I AM ABOUT TOO TELL YOU. OUR PASTOR, DANNY MARNEY CAME BY THIS

EVENING TO PRAY FOR AMY AND TO TELL HER TO NEVER GIVE UP ON HER

MIRACLE. HE WAS ON HIS WAY BACK TO OU MEDICAL CENTER, PRESBIE

TOWER TO PRAY FOR MIKE TOLLE, WHO WAS GOING TO SURGERY IN AN

ATTEMPT FOR THE DOCTORS TO SAVE HIS LEGS.

HE TOLD US AN AWESOME BUT SAD STORY. IT ONCE AGAIN PROVES THAT WE

MUST LIVE OUR LIFE ONE DAY AT A TIME AND AS IF IT IS OUR LAST.

THIS A PICTURE OF ONE OF THREE COUSINS WHO COULD ALWAYS BE

FOUND IN THE COMPANY OF EACH OTHER. THEY HAD SPENT THE DAY AT

THE OKLAHOMA STATE FAIR AND WERE TRAVELING HOME DOWN US HWY 81.

(I HAVE TRAVELED THAT ROAD MANY TIMES)

THEY WERE VERY, VERY, EXCITED ABOUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO THEM

AT THE STATE FAIR OF OKLAHOMA. THEY HAD TEXT A MESSAGE TO

FAMILY AND FRIENDS..............

COMING HOME TO WAUKHOMIS WAS A FATHER DELBERT TOLLE, 69 YEARS

OLD AND HIS SON MIKE TOLLE. THEY HAD BEEN TO VISIT DELBERT'S SON

AND MIKE'S BROTHER WHO HAD JUST HAD SURGERY. DELBERT'S WIFE AND HIS

5 SONS' MOTHER PASSED IN 2005. ONE OF HIS SONS GAVE HIS HEART TO

JESUS AS THE FUNERAL HOME TOOK HIS MOM'S BODY FROM THE HOME.
THE GIRL'S WERE TEXTING, "WE GAVE OUR HEARTS TO THE LORD", WHILE WE

WERE AT THE FAIR. THEIR CAR CROSSED THE CENTER LINE AND HIT

DELBERT TOLLE AND HIS SONS' JEEP CHEROKEE HEAD ON. IT KILLED

DELBERT INSTANTLY AND THE GIRL DRIVING THE CAR. THE TWO COUSINS

DIED UPON ARRIVAL AT THE HOSPITAL.

MIKE TOLLE REMAINS CRITICAL WITH HEAD INJURIES AND HE HAD TO

GO TO SURGERY TUESDAY NIGHT FOR THE DOCTOR TO SAVE HIS LEGS.

PASTOR MARNEY SAID DELBERT WAS A WONDERFUL CHRISTIAN MAN AND

DEVOTED TO HIS SONS. HE ALWAYS WORKED WITH THE YOUTH, ENCOURAGING

AND INSPIRING. HE SAID THAT HIS SPIRIT NO DOUBT WALKED UP TO THE

BEAUTIFUL GIRL DRIVING THE CAR, PUT HIS ARM AROUND HER SPIRIT AND SAID,

"LET'S GO HOME. JESUS IS WAITING FOR US."

PASTOR MARNEY SAID THAT ONE OF HIS SON'S SAID, "DAD IS HOME

WITH MOTHER AND HE IS HOLDING HIS ONLY BABY DAUGHTER THAT

MOTHER MISCARRIED!"

EVERYONE OF THESE PRECIOUS PEOPLE HAD NOT BEEN TOLD THEIR LIFE WAS

TERMINAL. THEY HAD DREAMS, PLANS, AND ONE OF THE GIRLS HAD A 5 MONTH

OLD BEAUTIFUL SON. IT WAS VERY TRAGIC THEY WERE TEXTING BUT PRAISE

GOD FOR THE MESSAGE, "WE GAVE OUR HEARTS TO THE LORD!" IF I WAS NOT

SURE WHERE AMY WAS SPENDING ETERNITY I WOULD BE UNCONSOLABLE AT

THIS TIME AND KNOWING THAT THE BIBLE SAYS EVERY HAIR ON OUR HEAD

IS COUNTED AND OUR EARTHLY SHELL WILL DIE BUT OUR SOUL WILL LIVE ON

FOREVER AND EVER. THE DEVIL COMES TO STEAL, KILL, AND DESTROY.

HE WANTS PEOPLE TO THINK JESUS AND HEAVEN ARE A FAIRY TALE.

I AM NOT A PREACHER AND I DON'T WANT TO EVER SOUND PREACHY OR

PIOUS.........I JUST HATE THE DEVIL AND I WANT NO ONE TO GO TO HELL.....

AND NO, NOT ONE OF THESE SPECIAL PEOPLE KNEW WHAT WAS WAITING

FOR THEM DOWN THE ROAD BUT THEY WERE SPIRITUALLY READY. IF

YOUR CHURCH HAS A BOOTH AT THE FAIR AND YOU HAVEN'T VOLUNTEERED,

THINK ABOUT DOING IT. WHAT AN AWESOME GIFT TO BE USED OF THE LORD

TO REACH SOMEONE FOR CHRIST.

******************************************************************************

AMY WAS VERY, VERY WOBBLY BUT HER WEIGHT IS AT 61 POUNDS

DOWN FROM 63.5 LBS. HER ANKLES AND LEGS ARE SO BONE WITH JUST

SKIN IT IS ONLY A MIRACLE OF GOD SHE CAN WALK AT ALL. TODAY SHE WAS

ABLE IN 24 HOURS TO KEEP 6 OUNCES OF ENSURE DOWN....JUST 6 OUNCES.

AMY RECEIVED 5 PRECIOUS CARDS TODAY AND A BOX THAT IS PRICELESS.

SHE HAS FOOT DROP AND SO SHE WALKS LIKE SOMEONE WHO HAS HAD

A BRAIN INJURY. I STILL SAY SHE WAS NEVER...NEVER RIGHT AFTER

HAVING THE BALLOON TEST TO SEE IF HER RIGHT CAROTID COULD CARRY

THE BLOOD SUPPLY WITHOUT HAVING A STROKE.....THE DAY OF THAT TEST

AMY BECAME BEDFAST....I THINK SHE SUFFERED A SLIGHT STROKE.

***********************************************************************************

I WILL SHARE THE STORY TOMORROW ABOUT A BEAUTIFUL 10 YEAR OLD

SPIRITUAL GIANT NAMED ALEXEY RAE AND HER BEAUTIFUL GRANDMA,

CAROL BRANNUM. YOU BETTER HAVE A BOX OF TISSUES PRESENT BECAUSE

10 YEAR OLD ALEXEY RAE IS MORE SPIRITUALLY MATURE THAN SOME

60 YEAR OLD CHRISTIANS. SHE TOUCHED AMY SO MUCH THAT AMY IS

GOING TO USE EVERY BIT OF ENERGY AND MY HELP TO MAKE A SPECIAL CARD

FOR ALEXEY RAE. IT PUT A FIRE IN AMY THAT HAS LONG BEEN GONE.

CAROL, I LOVE YOU AND ALEXEY RAE.

*****************************************************************************

I LOVE YOU ALL FOR THE BEAUTIFUL CARDS.....YOU SHOULD SEE THESE

WORKS OF ART IN THE BOOK MY MOTHER MADE....WE WILL TAKE PICTURES

ONE DAY TO POST.

***********************************************************************************

AS ALWAYS WE HAVE SO MANY PEOPLE IN NEED OF PRAYER AND WE SHALL

PRAY ONE FOR THE OTHER AS IT IS GOD'S GRACE AND MERCY WE ARE NOT

WALKING THEIR JOURNEY..........THE FLOODING IN GEORGIA HAS RESULTED

IN THE LOSS OF SO MANY LIVES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY (THEY DESPERATELY

NEED OUR PRAYERS)...BILL AND KERRIE, AMY, ME AND RICHARD...RICHIE AS HE

IS WORKING IN IOWA THIS WEEK...SHERRY...LEILA AND KORBIE...ROY AND ELISABETH...

MARYDON AND HAROLD...LADY PENNIWIG'S HUSBAND AND SON...ASHLEY AND HER

WITH ME. YOU ARE SPECIAL TO GOD AND ME. YOU ARE EACH UNIQUE

AND YOUR FRIENDSHIP IS PRICELESS. AS ALWAYS I CANNOT BEGIN TO

THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR ALL THE AWESOME CARDS. EACH ONE IS A

TREASURE.

YOU SET A NEW RECORD, LADIES

Isn't it odd how we can see a picture and it evokes a precious memory within us.

I cry very easily now days, and I seem to laugh just as easily....I see the smile on

Amy's face and it makes me happy and within the same second I am grieving at the

thought of not seeing her again until we are all in heaven together. I think that is

the definition of a maniac....lol

Today was as good and bad a day, as me laughing and crying. Amy and I laughed

and discussed everything but death. The "D" word is one of those things that are

always around but it is like "piles".....annoying but you don't discuss it.

The mass on her neck is just like someone inserted a small apple in her neck.

The nurse said if it opens they will put a pressure dressing on it and not mess

with it. It is displacing her trach and I was concerned the mass would push

the trach out of her neck. She said the report she received was that the mass

would crush her trachea.......I said, I knew it was going to close what airway she

had going to her mouth and above the trach but not one person bothered to tell

us the mass was going to grow so big she can hardly hold her head

up and today she could barely walk, even with our help....and that the tumor was

possibly going to pop open and that eventually she would die gasping for air......

My God, do you not think we had a right to know these things......she couldn't come

home from the hospital until everyone was assured I could take care of her but you

didn't think I needed to know information as important as that!!!!!

I get angry for being angry. I get frustrated over what seems to be of little

importance to them and of great importance to me. I feel grieved for every

parent whose child died a violent death of a mad man and so very grateful

my child will go home to glory within the safe walls of her parents' home.

I say, why am I so fortunate to be with my child until she goes home and

their are parents who grieve for their child whose going home took place at

the hands of a murderer in a strange, violent place. Who am I to complain...

we can always find someone who is walking a more difficult journey.

I FEEL PROUD THAT I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE FIGHT TO LIVE AS HARD

AS AMY HAS. SHE LOVES LIFE. AS PAINFUL AS LIFE HAS BEEN FOR HER,

SHE STILL LOVES EVERY SECOND OF IT...AND I CAN'T BEGIN TO TELL YOU

HOW MUCH I LOVE HER.

TODAY YOU SET A RECORD FOR CARDS.......

A BIG DRUM ROLL..........

49 CARDS.........45 CARDS PLUS 4 POST CARDS.

THE MAILMAN WAS LATE TODAY, SO SHE WAS ONLY ABLE TO READ 8

OF THE 49 BEFORE SHE WAS TOO EXHAUSTED TO READ ANY MORE.

HER EYES GOT BIGGER THAN USUAL WHEN SHE SAW THE STACK OF

MAIL. SHE EVEN RECEIVED A CARD FROM A PRECIOUS LADY IN SCOTLAND.

AMY HAS ALWAYS WANTED TO GO TO IRELAND AND KISS THE BLARNEY

STONE.

ADD 49 CARDS TO THE 148 SHE HAS ALREADY RECEIVED, THAT'S A LOT OF LOVE.

I WILL JUST NEVER BE ABLE TO THANK YOU ENOUGH.

GIVE YOURSELF A BIG PAT ON THE BACK...

YOU ARE AWESOME

I AM CLAPPING FOR YOU.

I AM GIVING YOU A STANDING OVATION.

MY MOTHER BOUGHT A LEATHER BOUND SCRAP BOOK THAT HAS VINYL SHEETS

YOU CAN ADD AND HAS PRESERVED EVERY CARD IN THIS BOOK....EACH CARD

IS LIKE A LITTLE PIECE OF ART WORK AND AMY CAN OPEN THE ALBUM AND

READ EVERY CARD....NOW MOTHER HAS 49 MORE TO ADD TO THE 148.

THANK YOU MOTHER FOR SUCH A WONDERFUL IDEA AND ALL THE HARD

WORK YOU PUT INTO IT.

PLEASE REMEMBER THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE IN PRAYER.....ATLANTA, GEORGIA

AND ALL THE FLOODING AND THE 5 PEOPLE WHO HAVE LOST THEIR LIFE,

AMY, LEILA, JAY, SUZANNE, RICHIE AS HE TRAVELS TO IOWA ON BUSINESS,

LADY PENNIWIGS SON AND HER HUSBAND'S ULCER ON HIS LEG,

PATRICIA, JEAN, PEGGY, MADONNA, TAMMY, BECCA, SHERRY'S FOOT,

TERESA, JENNIFER, MARYDON AND HUSBAND HAROLD WHO IS TRAVELING,

ASHLEY DESPERATELY NEEDS PRAYER, BARBARA AND ROY'S SAFETY AS

THEY TRAVEL, SALLY, ROY AND ELISABETH, TRACY'S MOTHER, DENNIS,

CAROLE, KRISTIE, KATHY, JEANNE, BRANDON, JAMIE, KIMBERT, KIPPIE,

HAROLD'S BROTHER, CAROL'S FATHER, CINDY, MONTE, JOHN, GLORIA,

TAWNA AND MIKE, DORIS AND RICHARD, 2 UNNAMED PRAYER REQUESTS

I WILL BE GLAD AND REJOICE IN YOUR LOVE, FOR YOU SAW MY

AFFLICTION AND KNEW THE ANGUISH OF MY SOUL.

A VISIT FROM ~ROSIE

LEILA, AMY'S BEST FRIEND CAME TO SEE HER TODAY. THE POSTMAN CAUGHT

MY HUSBAND OUTSIDE AND GAVE HIM TWO PACKAGES. I ASK MY DH IF HE CHECKED

THE MAILBOX.......LEILA AND MY DH CHIMED IN, "THE MAILMAN BROUGHT TWO

PACKAGES TO THE DOOR!" I SAID, "I KNOW THAT, BUT SOMETIMES HE DELIVERS

THE PACKAGES AND THEN BRINGS THE MAIL LATER. BESIDES, I KNOW MY

BLOGGY FRIENDS, AND SHERRY'S BLOGGY FRIENDS AND THEY ARE SENDING

CARDS TO AMY!"

MY HUSBAND CHECKED THE MAILBOX AND BOY, YOU SHOULD HAVE SAW THE

SHOCK AND DELIGHT ON MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER'S FACE AND SHERRY'S

DARLING NIECES FACE WHEN THERE WERE...........DRUM ROLL PLEASE..........

~THIRTY TWO CARDS!!!!!!!!!!

~THIRTY TWO CARDS!!!!!!!!!!

YOU BEAUTIFUL LADIES AND OUR BILL, THE ONE GENTLEMAN.......ARE AWESOME!

YOU BROUGHT SUNSHINE TO AMY THIS FRIDAY AFTERNOON. MY MOTHER/

AMY'S GRANNY CAME OVER AND WATCHED HER OPEN THE TREASURES SHE

RECEIVED AND NOT ONE SINGLE CARD WAS ALIKE.......IT AMAZES ME HOW

MANY DIFFERENT CARDS THERE ARE.

I HAVE ALWAYS HAD A LITTLE CARD MINISTRY WHERE I SENT CARDS TO

SHUT-INS AND CHRONICALLY ILL, THOSE BATTLING DEPRESSION AND NEVER

UNTIL TODAY....."THE LIGHT CAME ON".....HOW VERY HAPPY IT MAKES

SOMEONE TO RECEIVE SUCH SUNSHINE. I CRY THINKING HOW VERY HAPPY

IT MADE AMY. AMY IS SO WEAK NOW, I HAVE TO OPEN THE ENVELOPES

UP FOR HER AND HAND HER THE CARD.

IN THE BOX THAT CAME TODAY WAS A SPECIAL LITTLE GIFT TAKING A NAP

IN PINK TISSUE. AS WE OPENED THE PINK TISSUE OUT FLUTTERED ROSIE, THE

GARDEN FAIRY. SHE TOLD US HOW MANY MILES SHE HAD TRAVELED, AFTER

BEING TUCKED IN THE PINK TISSUE LOVINGLY BY LIZZIE. LIZZIE, HER MAKER,

GAVE HER INSTRUCTIONS TO SPRINKLE ROSIE GLITTER OF SUNSHINE RAYS

EVERY TIME A SMILE BEGAN TO FADE FROM AMY'S FACE.

ROSIE TOLD US SO MANY THINGS ABOUT HER BEAUTIFUL OUTFIT MADE FROM

VINTAGE RIBBONS, SILK HAIR, SPARKLY NETTING, AND VINTAGE MILLINERY.

ROSIE IS HANGING FROM THE CHAIN THAT OPERATES THE CEILING FAIN IN

THE LIVING ROOM AND SHE IS BESIDE A BUTTERFLY MY MOTHER BOUGHT

IN THE CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT SECTION AT HOBBY LOBBY.

I JUST WANT TO MENTION THAT DARLING ROSIE WAS SENT BY LIZZIE

http://vintagelizziestyle.blogspot.com

I HAD NEVER MET LIZZIE BUT I WENT TO HER BLOGSPOT......THIS IS AN

AWESOME WOMAN WHO IS A SINGLE MOTHER OF 4 AWESOME CHILDREN

AND SHE LIVES IN A 200 YEAR OLD HOUSE IN DENNIS, MA. I WAS NOT ABLE

TO READ ALL HER BLOG BUT SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL ARTIST.

THINGS ARE ROUGH FOR AMY....HER PAIN IS SEVERE....THE DOCTORS DID NOT

TELL US THE TUMOR WOULD CONTINUE TO GET BIGGER AND BIGGER UNTIL HER

NECK COULD OPEN. IT SEEMS TO GET BIGGER AS YOU WATCH IT.......AMY CAN

ONLY LOOK STRAIGHT AHEAD. SHE CAN NOT LOOK TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT AND

HER NECK IS PULLING TO THE LEFT. WE HAVE TO KEEP LOOSENING THE BAND

THAT HOLDS HER TRACH IN PLACE.

SHE IS BEGINNING THE PROCESS OF KEEPING HER EYES SHUT EVEN WHEN SHE

IS AWAKE TO BEGIN THE SEPARATION FROM THOSE SHE LOVES. I HAVE HAD

4 MAJOR PANIC ATTACKS WHERE I HAVE HAD TO TALK TO MYSELF....I

LITERALLY COULD NOT CATCH MY BREATH.

I TELL YOU THAT IT IS AT THESE TIMES YOU REALIZE NO MATERIAL POSSESSION,

NO MATTER RICH OR POOR, LOVED OR UNLOVED, WE ALL WILL FACE THE

VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH. IF YOU HAVE NO SPIRITUAL LIFE, YOU

WILL GET ONE IN A HURRY, IF YOU ARE ALLOWED THE TIME TO GIVE YOUR

HEART TO JESUS. I KNOW TO WHOM MY DAUGHTER HAS GIVEN HER HEART TO

AND WHETHER SHE IS HEALED HERE ON EARTH OR IN HEAVEN.........SHE IS

"HEALED" IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

I TELL YOU FRIENDS THROUGH TEARS AND NAUSEA, IT IS A NEAR IMPOSSIBLE

FEAT TO LET GO OF YOUR CHILD WHEN YOU HAVE NURTURED THEM THROUGH

EVERYTHING AND YOU CAN'T WALK THEM HOME. GOD KNOWS MY HEART AND MY HEART

IS JUST SHATTERED. MY FAITH WILL KEEP IT TOGETHER BUT IT IS NOT ABOUT ME OR MY

DH, OR OUR SON, OR MY SISTER SHERRY.....IT IS ABOUT AMY...AND KEEPING HER PAIN

FREE.

I CAN'T REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE LADY WHO ASK ABOUT SPLENDA BUT AMY HAS

NEVER HAD ANYTHING WITH SPLENDA, NUTRASWEET, OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT BUT

THANK YOU FOR ASKING.

PRAYER REQUESTS: AMY, LEILA, LADY PENNIWIG'S HUSBAND AND SON, SHERRY'S FOOT,

ASHLEY, BECCA, LADY KATHERINE, MARYDON'S EYE ALLERGIES, HAROLD'S BROTHER AND

HAROLD'S SAFETY WHILE TRAVELING, PATRICIA, AUNT JEAN, MONTE, KIPPIE, DENNIS,

JAY AND SUSAN, BOBBY, ROY AND ELISABETH, BARBARA AND ROY WHILE TRAVELING,

DORIS, RICHARD, JAMIE, TAWNA, MIKE, PEGGY, SALLY, KATHY, ROGER, JESS,

SO MANY, MANY PRAYER REQUESTS MY FRIENDS.

PRAISE REPORT......LEILA WILL BE GOING BACK TO WORK THE FIRST OF OCTOBER. SHE CAN

ONLY WORK 4 HOURS A DAY, AND WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP HER INSURANCE. SHE STILL

HAS A SPOT THEY ARE GOING TO CHECK EVERY THREE MONTHS.

QUEEN MOTHER MAMAW'S DAUGHTER RACHEL IS OR HAS GONE BACK TO WORK AND SHE

WAS VERY, VERY ILL.

THANK YOU SWEET JESUS FOR THESE PRAISE REPORTS INCLUDING THE 32 CARDS THAT

CAME TODAY. WE SAW A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE OF LOUIS, THE CAT.....HE WAS AWESOME.

WE/AMY IS A BIG ANIMAL LOVER AND SHE LOVES HEARING ABOUT YOUR PETS. SHE

LOVES BUTTERFLIES, ANGELS, FLOWERS, FUNNY THINGS, CROSSES, ANYTHING...YOU ALL

HAVE DONE A WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL, AWESOME JOB.

THANK YOU...THANK YOU.....THANK YOU..........

YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

YOU ARE TRULY ANGELS AND GODS' HANDS EXTENDED

ANGEL HUGS

AN UPDATE ON AMY

MY NIECE HEIDI USED THIS PICTURE ONCE AND IT JUST MADE ME THINK WHERE

WE ARE AT WITH AMY. YESTERDAY A DHS WORKER CAME TO FILL OUT THE PAPERS TO

TRY AND START THE PROCEDURE TO HAVE HER APPROVED FOR THE ADVANTAGE

PROGRAM, WHICH WILL ALLOW HER 18 PRESCRIPTIONS A MONTH. IF CANCER HAS

NEVER TOUCHED YOUR DOORSTEP PRAISE THE LORD IT NEVER DOES.

THERE IS ENDLESS TRIPLICATE PAPERWORK BY EVERYONE THAT COMES TO

THE HOUSE AND WE HAVE ENOUGH HIPPA PAPERS TO WALLPAPER THE

WHOLE HOUSE.

SO MANY OF YOU ASK HOW AMY IS DOING. I AM TRYING TO STAY POSITIVE IN A

SITUATION IN THE NATURAL EYE LOOKS SO HOPELESS BUT THROUGH MY SPIRITUAL

EYES I SEE HER HEALED AND WHOLE AND FREE OF PAIN.

JUST A LITTLE BIT AGO I HAD TO GIVE HER PAIN MED THROUGH HER PEG TUBE.

I WAS LOOKING OUT THE PICTURE WINDOW AS KIDS, GIGGLING AND SHOVING EACH

OTHER, WERE WALKING TO SCHOOL. I COULD SEE AMY AND MY SON RICHIE

WITH THEIR BACK PACKS AND ME DRIVING THEM TO SCHOOL...."FLASHES OF MEMORIES."

ALTHOUGH I DID NOT KNOW THE CHILDREN I SAW TODAY I PRAYED FOR

THEM. THEY ARE OUR FUTURE...GOOD OR BAD....I PRAYED THE POSITIVE

AND THAT THEY WOULD KNOW THE LORD AND LIVE FOR HIM.

NO PARENT EVER THINKS THAT LIGHTENING WILL STRIKE ONE CHILD'S LIFE 5

TIMES IN 33 YEARS.

AMY WEIGHS SIXTY THREE POUNDS NOW. ONE MONTH AGO SHE WEIGHED 74.3 POUNDS.

HER LITTLE THIGH THAT ON 8/28/09 MEASURED 13 INCHES, NOW MEASURES 11 1/2

INCHES. SHE CAN NO LONGER WALK ALONE ON HER OWN......BUT HER SPIRIT IS

AS STRONG AS IT EVER WAS AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE GOD IS GOING TO HEAL HER

SHE WON'T EVEN TALK TO YOU. SHE IS AT PERFECT PEACE EXCEPT FOR PAIN, NAUSEA,

AND STARVATION.

SHE DESPERATELY NEEDS PRAYER FOR NUTRITION AND FOR THE NAUSEA AND

PAIN TO GO AWAY. WE CANNOT FIND ANYTHING THAT DOES NOT BRING ON

EXTREME NAUSEA AND/OR VOMITING WHEN WE FEED HER.

SHE TAKES ZOFRAN 4MG FOR NAUSEA....AND I HAVE

EVEN TRIED JUST GIVING HER 3 TABLESPOONS OF ENSURE EVERY 3 HOURS.

THAT IS NOT MUCH BUT EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS. THE JEVITY CAUSED HER

TO VOMIT CONTINUOUSLY.

ON TO A VERY HAPPY SUBJECT FOR AMY

YOUR CARDS HAVE MEANT THE WORLD....YOU WILL NEVER KNOW THIS SIDE OF

HEAVEN, WHAT JOY YOU HAVE BROUGHT TO HER......PLEASE TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS

TO SEND CARDS.......THE MOST CARDS SHE HAS RECEIVED IN ONE DAY WAS 12.....I

WOULD LOVE TO SEE HER FACE IF 24 ARRIVED IN ONE DAY. SHE IS TOO WEAK TO

DO ANYTHING, BUT WHEN "MAIL CALL" COMES HER EYES TWINKLE AND SHE IS ALL

SMILES.....SUCH JOY IT BRINGS HER. IT IS SOMETHING SHE HAS TO LOOK FORWARD TO.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. SO MANY NEED PRAYER:

PLEASE REMEMBER ASHLEY, NICOLE, SHERRY'S FOOT, MARYDON'S EYES, TAMMY,

ROY AND ELIZABETH, LADY KATHERINE, PATRICIA, DENNIS, JEAN, RICKY,

CAROLE, MADONNA, KIPPIE, KIMBERT, MONTE, BRANDON, DORIS AND RICHARD,

TAWNA AND MIKE, LEILA AND KORBIE, KENDRA, HAROLD'S BROTHER, TOM,

DORIS'S ANGEL IN IRAQ, LADY PENNIWIG'S SON, ALL THE LITTLE SICK PETS,

AND PEACE IN THIS GREAT NATION OF OURS.

MANY THOUSANDS OF THANKS TO YOU BEAUTIFUL BLOGGERS.

MICHELLE OF ROSEBUD QUILTING IT WAS A JOY FOR ME TO TALK TO YOU

YESTERDAY. IT WAS OUR PASTOR THAT WAS AT THE DOOR AND I WAS STILL IN

PJ'S. I WAS NOT EXPECTING HIM. ANYHOO, YOU'RE A BLESSING.

ANGEL HUGS TO YOU ALL

LOVE

Debbie
