So I've been in Florida now for nearly a week...visiting my sister...and it has been Oh so nice! I knew this summer would be crazy busy, but now we have a few new things thrown into the mix. We just found out that my grandma, my mom's mom, has been diagnosed with liver cancer as well as bone cancer. At first we thought they were going to do surgery, but I guess now they have moved her to hospice care and given her up to 3 months to live. She lives in Florida, but still about 7 hours away from where we are. Courtney, her 2 kids plus Jolee and I are all about to embark on a drive down to visit Grandma for what will probably be the last time. My mom is flying in as well. For all my prayer warriors out there...please pray for our travels, for health and strength for us all, for peace and physical comfort for Grandma, for peace of mind and strength for what is ahead for my mom and aunts. We are so blessed to be able to visit her while she is still doing well. I'm excited to introduce her to our little miracle baby. I'm saddened by the thought of saying goodbye, and that my boys who love their GG so much will probably not see her again on this earth. God is good, He is always faithful. And He has been so gracious in His timing and is allowing us to go visit. I am so thankful for that.
So when I return home...just about a week later than planned, it will be a whirlwind. I'll get home, unpack, do the laundry, repack, and head out with the whole family for Ohio. There we plan to visit with family, help Diane through her cancer treatment as much as possible, and work on their house. We are in for a lot of traveling these days. I am thankful that we have the opportunity to do everything we are doing. We will need much prayer as we walk through these difficult days. Thank you all for your love and support.
