ONE DAY AT A TIME SWEET JESUS,
THAT IS ALL WE ARE ASKING OF YOU!!
It has been a rough week!! We had to take Leah to the emergency room Tuesday night.
Chemo can damage the heart so they wanted to make sure that the severe chest pain is not caused from heart damage. From test the heart doesn't show any damage,
but the cause of pain has not yet been resolved.
Thank you for your continual prayers.

We continue to call your name in prayer. We love you and feel for you in this rough situation. We believe God for the touch and the strength that you need.

"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."
This is my most cherished verse in the book of Psalms. Even as a young girl, I could repeat this verse and immediately feel the presence of God all around me, protecting me from whatever caused me fear. Leah is strong, and she has no fear, she has faith. Tonight, this verse of Psalms is for me. I hope you have a restful night.
Love, Vernie
