Hello precious Joanna,  grandpa Steve and I went to another Dr in Seattle. She is a sharp lady and is trying to help me. We are talking about possible surgery before the end of the year. There are alot of big decisions to be made. I pray for you, Mom and Daddy every day. God told me that your Daddy was going to be a pastor someday. Daddy loves you so much. He is trying very hard to deal with my illness and lots of responsibilities for a young man of 22. I know he loves you very much honey. I miss him too- Love you, Nana

Joanna I am so happy! I got to go to church tonight! What a blessing it was to see my church family. I have never had a real church family before and it is great! This is what it's all about, God, people, family. Even when we are away from our nuclear family God wants us to have the love and support of a church family to surround you. We are all part of the family of God as Christ followers we have the sisters and brothers and God our wonderful Abba (Daddy) Father. He is with us precious. He is with you right now as you are reading this.He loves us so very much honey <3 Nana

Dear Jojo,
 Getting ready to go to Seattle for a second opinion on my surgery. I do not know if I even want it. I am afraid Jojo. Someday you will grow up and become a wonderful young women of God. Seek Him in your quiet times, or times you miss people and feel sad, God is our Daddy and He will always be there for you Jo. I am praying for you and your family today.. I thank God for you joanna <3 Your Nana

Hi Jojo,
I am feeling better today. I can really feel all the prayers people are praying for me as I wait patiently for God's healing. God is good Joanna. He loves you so very much. I am praying for you too. I know God has a special plan and purpose for your life. I am asking God to protect you, bless you, guide you, keep you and Mommy and Daddy every day. Prayers transcend time and space. I pray that someday, Lord willing, I can be with you all and rejoice with you in God's healing of me!
 Sending you lots of love and hugs today! Love Nana

Psalm 37:34

The Message (MSG)

34 Wait passionately for God,
don’t leave the path.
He’ll give you your place in the sun
    while you watch the wicked lose it.

Hi Joanna, Today the sun is shining here. I am sure God is working "all things together for good" as I love Him and trust Him with my life as well as your life and your family. Romans 8:28 I hope today is a wonderful day for you Jojo. I love you with all my heart sweet girl <3 Nana

Hooray Jojo! Today Nana got some hope from my second opinion Dr. . She is meeting with us to discuss surgery to remove the cancer. Hope is something we all need. Can you image what it must be like for people that do not know Jesus to go through difficult times? I am so grateful to God for giving me hope!
I also pray and hope for you, your mommy and daddy. I know God has important plans for you precious girl. I am believing God for a total healing so I can continue to share Christ with others. My prayer is to see you all soon, Lord willing.  I love you Joanna. God's blessings on all our family <3 Nana
