Hello again

Hi friends, wow, have we missed all of you. We are back on track now, and had a good quiet summer. The girls are well, and ready for homeschool to start, we did start on Monday. They are both off to a great start.
Let me see, where has the time gone.... summer was good for Hannah and she has only a few small issues that will resolve over the next few weeks.
Hannah attended her first slumber party, and did happen to stay awake most of the night... thank you Anna for the build a bear party, and lots of fun. She did come home covered in bug bites, but they are healing nicely..... (O:
Fevers here and there, but nothing to major, and no hospital visits lately.... Thank you Jesus...
Sarah also has been doing well. growing like a weed. (O:
Not much else is new, just keeping busy and waiting on God's timing.
Upcoming appointments are:
Hannah, Aug. 31, Birmingham, we will be seeing a new pulmonary dr, so that will be interesting.
Hannah Sept. 11th, not sure if we will need to keep this, but pretty sure, we should find out the results of all of Hannah's latest test, and if she has lukemia or not. We are fully trusting God on this..... it is all in his devine hands.
We should also find out if we will continue the IVIG treatments.

We appreciate all your prayers. What a blessing!
Much love and Prayers
Lori and girls

Update on Hannah

Hi Friends,
We hope that you are all having a blessed week. Several are graduationg and going off to school...
We had a check up in Birmingham, Hannah has psorisis, and psoristic arthiritis. It is degenerative from what we understand, and we are in the search for a small childs wheelchair. Just for when she can't go on, use it as little as possible. We don't want her to become dependent on it. We are stopping the infusions and the antibiotics for the summer, and will start them back up in September.
A much needed break. We are doing well otherwise, getting ready for school to start back, we will start in July this year. The girls are glad for a small break.
We are keeping busy with feild trips, and lots of fun and relaxation. Hannah is enjoying this time off. We hope that you all have a blessed week.
Much Love and Prayer's,
Lori and girls

Where does the time go?

Hi Friends,
We hope that you are each doing well. It has been crazy here. Hannah has had fever virus for over a week, she was a little dehydrated, but no hospital visit this time, thankfully, also Sarah actually got the fever virus.... Unusual for that to happen. Anyhow, Hannah had an infusion today, it went well, and so far there has been no fever.... which is a big Praise....
We do go th Birmingham on Tuesday next week, hopefully we can find out some answers... as you may remember, Hannah had some extra blood work done and it was sent to Cinncinatti Childrens Hospital, hopefully we will find something out. We have been indoors lately, part due to rain, part due to sicknesses. We are hoping to take the girls fishing this weekend if possible. Other than that we are doing well.
Hannah made me a precious bracelet for mothers day, and Sarah got me a teddy bear treasure chest, Lonnie got me a new canister vacume cleaner for Mothers day. Lots of lovely gifts.
I have a sweet family, and thank God for them daily...
I hope that you all have a blessed week, you are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Much love and Prayer's,
Lori and girls

long week...

Hi Friends,
We hope that you are all doing well. We are ok, warding off viruses as much as possible. Hannah and Sarah are going to the dr. tomorrow, for a check up, both are feeling a bit under the weather, as is Carissa, my neice. So for a while tomorrow we will all four be in a very small room waiting to see the dr. I know it is virus time, Hannah usually keeps some sort of virus most of the time.
It seems much later than Tues. evening. We are getting ready for Mother's day, we are celebrating with friends and family, and a few unsuspecting moms... it will be nice I am sure... the girls have given me my present, one being in my life, such sweet girls I am blessed by God for lending them to me. My sweet pearls.... they also gave me a new study Bible that is purple. I love it!
I hope that you can spend time with your mom, or stand in mom. We try to do something for mom's that have lost their children, or spouse, so that they aren't alone on Mothers day. The LORD has blessed us with mom's, some good, some not so good, but mom's have made us who we are. We honor them this week on a special day....
so to all the mom's out there, we would like to say,
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to you!!!
We hope that you all have a blessed week.
Much Love and Prayer's,
Lori and girls

We love to have help and encouragement from our friends.
Hope that you all have a blessed week.

prayers needed...

Hi Friends,
We hope that you are all doing well.
This is a something that has beend on my heart lately..... we need to be in constant prayer for our friends, family, and even our emimies. Christian and non christian alike need prayer. The non christian for a realization of their need for a savior, and christians for a closer walk with Christ. As a believer I feel the need to uplift people I know, on a daily basis. I also feel a need to uplift those I may come in contact with on a day to day basis. I want others to see Jesus through me, through my walk, my talk, and my life..... I want to be a witness for anyone God sends into my path. Please pray for me and our family, that we can show others Jesus through us.
On to other things, Hannah has been feeling ok lately. She has even been out riding her bike some with Sarah. What a blessing to mommy. She fell last week and cut her leg open, not to bad, but it did take all the skin off, and looked bad. We are praying that she doesn't get a staff infection, with her health issues, we need the scrape to heal soon. She is going to the pediatrician soon, so we will be keeping an eye on it. We appreciate your prayers on our behalf. What a blessing you are to us.
We hope that you have a blessed week.
Much love and Prayer's,
Lori and girls

Hi all

Hi Friends,
Hope that you are all felling well, and having a blessed week.
We are doing good. Keeping busy. Hannah is doing ok, some good days, some bad days. We just take them one at a time. She is a bit pale today. No fever though. So that is good.
I have been reading a really good book, it is called "The Shack."
I see things in a whole different way!! Wow ! If you don't read any other book, other than the Bible, you should read this one! It is life changing... for the better ! God is an awesome God !! He loves you all, as though there were only one... He would have still died on the cross for you. Gods Love and grace are unconditional, and pure, and wholly, totally love. I have a hard time trying to explaine it, but God loves, even you....
Let Him show you!
Hope that you all have a blessed week!
Much love and prayer's,
Lori and girls
