Sunday, October 21, 2007



It was a pretty uneventful Sunday for our family. We visited Isaac this morning and had lunch at Qdoba. We came back for a short afternoon nap and then some outside playtime. Dinner was soup and bread and then off to Target/Walmart to find a mobile for Isaac (a suggestion from his nurse). We arrived back to our room a short while ago and are waiting for Hannah to go to sleep so we can watch a little TV and relax together before Jason leaves at 5am for Michigan.

A very good friend of mine who is also the wife of our pastor will be visiting this coming weekend. I am thrilled she is able to come here. (Thanks, J, for lending me your wife for a few days). I've been thinking of coming home the following week--we just have to figure out what days they'll be.

Isaac is scheduled for his biopsy on Tuesday. If everything goes as it SHOULD, he will be eating by the end of the week.

Jesus, I lift up our son to you. I pray you would heal him from all illness and prepare him to come home with us soon. In everything, I pray for your will to be done. Amen.

Sweet pictures of mommy and her baby boy!
I am glad to hear you will be having company from a good friend soon. I know it must be difficult being away from your home and your close friends.
I hope Jasons trip home is safe and you are able to take a trip home to your own house.
Blessings and warm wishes for the week ahead.

Hi Tiffany,
I just read and caught up from a few days away. I've been seeing a bit of what you are going through, certainly not to your extreme. My dad had open heart surgery, a quadrouple bypass and has been at Munsun Hospital in Traverse City. I took Julia and spent a few days caring for him and my mom. Jenna stayed home with David. We stayed in the Munsun Manor Hospitality House which I believe is very similar to the RMDH. The romms are from $30-45 per night and have a shared kitchen, laundry, etc. You do your own cleaning and there is no TV in the room. Donations are accepted in a piggy bank for the breakfast foods available and every one cleans up after themselves. Very nice little set up. I also got a taste of how torn you must be trying to care for Hannah and Issac at the same time and wanting to be with Issac and be at home in GR. I'm back home now but plan to head back for Tuesday night. My heart tuely goes out to you. What you are doing takes the kind of strength we can only receive from our God above.
Hugs & Misses! Brenda

Good morning,
Love the pictures of course, it sounds like things are back to what normal is down there for you.
We had a great visit with Aunt Bev and Uncle Bill. Bill did some things around here to help Papa out. Of course things did not work out like they would have wanted them to but all is well. A simple leaky sink wound up being a major project.
I am hoping to get to Walmart this week to see what I can find. I will talk to you later as I am off back to bed for a little more shut eye.
Love ya, Gram and Papa

Took out my hour to watch Oprah(I know you love her),and it happened to be on death...I am so blessed to have a daughter and son that is giving their most, to a little boy(son) and my grandson, to make his every moment on this earth, feeling wanted, knowing that he is loved, that someone cares enough, that anyone would take the time and energy, and it is your voices that he so lovingly hears and listens to.

People look at death and have regrets that they did not make a difference. You have done that 3 fold. Hannah, Moriah and Isaac.

Our little fighter"buddy" knows you are fighting the good fight, and so is he, with all his might and will and God's angels beside him. As Gram would say PTL!

God Bless all of you.

Smile! I am thinking of you, as always. I certainly smiled when I I received my "Hannah painting".
Thank you so much for that gift.

Glad to hear that Holly is able to come and spend some time with you.

Love, kisses and hugs to the Evans 4, Love Mom (Nana)
