rough couple of days

Hello Dear Family and Friends,
We have had a rough couple of days. Kelly is extremely fatigued and has some mouth sores that make it difficult to talk and eat. He has been resting the last couple of days. We have both been down-hearted as the reality of this settles in. We are not without God's peace, presence and love nor do we feel hopeless, we are just "feeling" our situation and thinking about what's to come. ANYWAY!!! We have had several good cries together as well as sweet times of prayer. We made it through today and tomorrow is another new day filled with God's mercy, strength and the promise of His presence. Oh, I can not imagine life without our Savior! We praise Him for His love and mercy to us. Thank you also for your prayers. They really do mean so much to us. Please pray for continued strength for both Kelly and I and please pray for our kid as they deal with seeing Papa feeling sick and really tired, I'm sure it is a bit scary for them. Love, Gabriela

Hi Kelly and Gabriella!

I'm praying for you as a family and for you, Kelly, to have the strength and endurance only Christ can give during this time. Being a peds heme/onc nurse, I know you've got quite a road ahead. But, praise to the great Healer and comforter who comforts us in our time of need! I pray that God shows Himself to be mightier than mouthsores and Lord conqueror of Leukemia!
