Karen's Day at Shands

Karen wanted a place for family and friends to be able to see how she is doing each day at Shands. This is how she is making that happen.

This may be the best Christmas ever!

December14

I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel and had a descent nites sleep last night.  I got to speak a little with my Heather about some Christmas planning and all the children seem okay with lack of “presents” and some quality time together.  I love my family.  I am really looking forward to making some gifts and decorations and just worshiping our Christ as a family.  I would never let my babies do without, and Praise God, he has always provided in this family.  Thank you Jesus.

It is possible we may get discharged on Wednesday if my GI tract continues to improve.  Oh I just can’t wait!!!!!

Please continue to pray for my dear friend Sofia/sister thru Christ,  in treatment for brain cancer, and all the other people on your prayer lists.  If they are better, prayers of thanks.   And have the most Merry Christmas ever!

    Great news that you may be getting discharged Wednesday! Will you be staying in G’ville through Christmas? Will add Sofia to my prayer list. Please also pray for John’s sister’s husband (John), kids (Nikki and Danielle), grandkids, and all of the siblings (Jerry, Theresa, John, Jim, Jeanette, and Jeff). Julie lost her fight this past Friday . . . 🙁

    WEDNESDAY … IS GOING TO BE A GOOD DAY … YOU ALREADY HAVE ALL THE THINGS YOU NEED TO DECORATE.. LIGHTS SPARKLING… IN EVERYONES EYES… ARMS ENCIRCLED AROUND EACH OTHER LIKE FRESH WREATHS… LAUGHTER AND CHATTER FILLING THE SPACE LIKE OLD CHRISTMAS STORIES FROM DAYS PAST AND CHRISTMAS CAROLS… GIFTS WRAPPED IN THE CHERISHED LONG AWAITED MOMENTS OF FAMILY TOGETHERNESS AND THE ABILITY TO KNOW WHAT THE TRUE MEANING OF THE CHRISTMAS SEASON IS ABOUT.
    OH YES KAREN YOU WILL HAVE A TRULY BLESSED CHRISTMAS SO MANY HAVE RECIEVED HUGE GIFTS FROM YOU. YOU HAVE SHOWN PEOPLE HOW TO BE HUMBLE, STRONG HOW TO FIND THEIR FAITH
    HOW TO SHARE CHRIST WITH OTHERS, HOW TO REALIZE HOW MUCH THEY HAVE, HOW TO FIGHT, HOW TO KNOW THAT WHAT YOU “HAVE” IS NOT ALWAYS SO IMPORTANT IN LIFE, YOU HAVE REMINDED PEOPLE TO APPRECIATE EACH AND EVERY DAY BECAUSE EVERY ONE IS A GIFT. YES GIRLFRIEND YOU SHOULD HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS.
    LOVE YOU
