Our week outside of Brody being sick has also been filled with a situation within our family. Most of you know and some of you may not. We found out last week that Don's cousin has cancer. His name is Joe. He had cancer several years ago and it's returned. Joe is Don's best friend. Joe is actually married to Don's cousin and they have three children. He has lymphoma and currently has two tumors. One is in his skull and one in his groin. I believe he has spots in his armpit as well. Last Sunday we went to church with them and prayed for Joe along with the rest of our family and leaders of the church. It was a very powerful time, God's presence was evident. I can't quite explain the scenario but it was very moving. Yesterday we found out our first good news, Joe's cancer is not in his bone marrow. This is very big. It means that the cancer is localized and it makes the battle easier. One week from today he will be having surgery to have the tumors removed. Please being praying for Joe and his family. His wife's work is not being very supportive and is giving her a hard time about missing work. This makes me so sad I don't understand this mentality. Anyway thank you for your prayers. Anyone in the area who wants to share support there will be a benefit Aug. 30th, I can post details later.

Did I just have another baby!??
I tried commenting on a friends blog and I am so tired that the clouds wouldn't even clear for me to think of anything to say. Brody has been sick this week. Neither Don nor I have been feeling well either and we are all so exhausted. I think Brody might be feeling better but he is also on motrin today and of course today is the day of his Dr. Appt! So the question is do I keep the appt and go anyway or cancel it assuming he is getting better? I am too tired to make the decision. The sad thing about being so tired is that I went back to bed this morning when he did and slept until eleven. He woke me up otherwise I don't think I would have gotten up. I am hoping to take another nap today and get rested up for a wedding that I am shooting tomorrow. I am booked for 9 hours. So it's going to be a long day and I need all the energy I can muster. Anyway I am just rambling. This is why I haven't been blogging.
