This is my first post and I want to thank everyone who has put me in their prayers, it is hard to express what this truly means to me. I want to thank those who have sent cards, flowers, and words of encouragement. To everyone who has helped with food, cleaning, babysitting and the list goes on, we truly appreciate it. Every one's love and support is truly what has helped us get through this difficult time. Thanks for your kind words and thoughtful comments on your posts . It is hard to read the blog without crying. I have all the confidence and faith in God that with every one's prayers we're going to beat this monster. I'm making plans to attend my kids' college graduations. I feel God has a plan for me. I hope and believe it is to help someone down the road to give them hope; like so many angels have given me and my family through this difficult journey. At some of the hardest times, God has appeared through people to remind me not to doubt and he is walking every step with me.
I have had a few difficult days recently with my hair loss and still minimal use of my left foot; but I'm still working hard at therapy everyday and trying to be patient. My PT, Chad, is amazing and goes beyond in helping me reach my goals. My left arm is regaining strength but I had to type this with my right hand only. With all that said, I thank God every day how lucky I am because it could be so much worse.
Today was a day of mixed emotions, we celebrated Katherine's 1st birthday. Her actual birthday is November 21st. It is so surreal to think a year ago I was pregnant and now a year later I'm dealing with this monster in my head.
I know God is seeing me through every moment of this, but I do have my moments. Please keep praying. David and I have been blessed with 3 little miracles and now we need one more so we can raise these little miracles together.
My love to everyone
Angela

Happy Sunday Angela!!
Thanks for your post!! I can't even put my thoughts around what you have to deal with emotionally and physically each moment since this monster entered your life. However, this monster has no idea who he is dealing with!! God is bigger than it and with all the prayer warriors storming heaven for you, the beast better watch out!!!
After reading your post, I thought this was appropriate...
Jesus told the disciples a parable about the necessity for them to pray always without becoming weary. Luke 18:1
Until you are totally healed, I for one will pray for you and never grow weary...no matter how long it may be.
In church today, our pastor told the congregation that all we have is to live for today. No one knows the future. What we can do is rest in him because he is the only one who knows our plan.
So, I hope you enjoy your day with your 3 miracle babies. And by the way, did you get your refund from the doctor on Katherine?? HEHE!!
Here is the joke for the day...
Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Gladys.
Gladys who?
Gladys Thanksgiving. Aren't you?
Love and praying for you constantly,
Lowry
It's so good to hear from you personally Angela. It's so good to hear your amazing attitude. It's obvious the Lord is stirring up a fire within you. Keep up those positive thoughts and we will also continue our prayers as well. Take care and hug those babies for me. "Aunt" Trish

angela,
i just want to say that i'm thinking of you daily and more importantly, i'm praying for you. i've wanted to email you or send you a card for some time now, but i just didn't know what to say or how to say it. please know that i love you so much, and i truly believe in the power of God and the prayers of His people. just reading through some of the comments and stuff, i can see that you have so many people lifting up prayers for you...standing in the gap, if you will. together, we are just lifting you up to the One who's ultimately in control, and He has power over this monster. you know that... i just want you to know that i care so much! i really do. big, big hug to you. love you. ~lesley andrew
