travelling

heading off to NC, unsure how soon I will be able to post again. follow me on facebook for updates. pray for frank and the kids while I leave them here-
my dad is dying. his hear is only working at 20% capacity. pray for him.

My Dad

about 2 weeks ago I got a call from my mom.

"jen, your dad has lung cancer"

a million questions swirled in my head...
what stage?
should i go to NC?
how long til I should travel?
has mom applied for his disability?

so I went into marine corps wife mode and starting finding the answers...

went online looked up his symptoms and determined approx the stage of his cancer

got mom and appointment with social security

found the numbers to the nurses at the hospital

got all of dad's doctor's numbers

talked to his lung cancer doctor...



that one was the real eye opener:

he said he would be surprised if my dad lasted another 10 weeks.

wow.

and that he is "gravely ill"

Saturday he went home after a week long stay at the hospital, only to be returned to the hospital early Sunday morning after having a mild heart attack. tomorrow they will decide if a bronchoscopy is safe... and while a dangerous procedure- it is further complicated by the heart attack from last night and the fact that my dad has pneumonia.

I need to go to North Carolina.

pray that my dad finds salvation before it is too late.

Happy Father's Day

I need to share the happy times today. I will post an update about my dad's situation soon. please just pray for him to find Jesus before it is too late.

another storm blowing in

I am not supposed to know. so for what I am not supposed to know, there is a fierce storm blowing into my life. pray for me, my family and mostly for my dad.
he won't tell me what is going on. and until he does I will praise God in the storm...
its the only way I can deal with it all from 3000 miles away

Swimming with the seals

for me. tonight, this song says it all.
