Hello dear friends and family. I wanted to thank you all for praying for
Kelly and our family. You have no idea how much it means to us.
I wanted to let you know that Kelly is doing great today! He is feeling
well, has his appetite and is actually at the office for a couple of
hours today.
I asked him yesterday how his heart was and his reply was that he was
incredibly thankful. His response caught me by surprise and I asked, “Why
are you thankful?” He said he was thankful that he is not in a third
world country. He is thankful that he is receiving excellent medical care
and that he has the blessing of medical insurance.
We realize that his cancer is a result of sin in the world; people get
sick. What we know is that God directs our steps, even through the darkest valley's. How thankful we are to be known, and loved by Him at this time.
Kelly is very positive and is leading our family in truth. He told me
this morning that he is sure God will use this for His glory and our good.
It is up to us to keep on doing life as normal as possible. So our plan
is to keep loving God, each other, and the people He brings into our
lives. We are confidant this journey will expand our ministry and give us
greater understanding for people who suffer. It is not exactly accurate
to say that we are excited about this, but we are honored for the
opportunities that God will bring.
Kelly goes in for his second chemotherapy treatment tomorrow morning from
8:00AM- 11:00AM. Please pray that he will continue to respond well to
treatment but more importantly that God will strengthen us and continue to
draw us close to Himself.


Love,
Gabriela
