ON ANOTHER NOTE:

Building up my stash again…my SIL is going to go through another round

of radiation and chemotherapy…stronger, she is going to be real sick for

awhile…please join us in prayer for the Lord to get her through this

brain cancer…she is a fighter, but some times fighters have to sit it out and let

others fight in prayer for them…prayer warriors, we need you. Thank you.

She will be going through a lot of traveling for her treatments. Her Radiation

will be in Providence, but her Chemotherapy will be at Dana Farber in Boston.

45 min.-1 hr. to Providence for radiation…2-21/2 hrs. to Boston for the Chemo.

Those times are also dependent upon traffic. Both are major cities and you know

how that can be…never mind sick. My friends…the rounds are to begin in May…keep

her in prayer, please. Thank you again.

Hello All!

Dare I say it…?

Happy Monday to you ALL!

I do hope your day is going well…if not…maybe today’s Card

will bring you some cheer!
