Being In The Hand of God

June 3 We think he's on his way :-)

We have a confirmed flight - Air New Zealand on Tuesday June 6. Father and Son nursing team to accompany him. Goes through Auckland then to LA arriving 2:40 in the afternoon on the 6th of June into LA. There will be an Air Ambulance from LA straight to Walla Walla (we think - no confirmation on that section). Pray for the rest of the planning. Pray for Bobb's tolerance of the travel on a stretcher.

I still have tickets to make from Cairns after graduation. We had to cancel our other tickets and the travel agency is having a difficult time giving our money back even though they have a letter from the hospital confiming that my husband is in the hospital and a letter from the directorate in Ukarumpa. Pray that we get the money back, because at this stage we really can't afford to lose $3800 which was just the Cairns to LA legs of LiChel and I's original trip.

There is always another detail around the corner - and my stomach is nervous.

Rejoice in the Lord always, I will say it again rejoice. Let your gentleness be evident to all (well we might have to work on that - I'll try not to yell at the doctor again :-) The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God that transcends understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-7

My requests: Bobb travel well, Turning Point Rehab will be good and get Bobb off to a good start on recovering. That he will continue to have a good spirit and work hard even though the simplest things are hard right now - its not quite like learning as a child, there's more knowledge inside, but it doesn't come out right. That we both will handle the separation and get done what needs to be done. We do give the Lord thanksgiving for each of you! For the nursing staff and doctors at Cairns Base, those in Ukarumpa, pilots, and many many others who pray daily for Bobb!

  • I love you, Bobb, and have been thinking a lot about you! That's going to be a long trip, but lots of people waiting to welcome you back! I talked to your dad and Vearl today and they are anxiously awaiting your arrival. Take care and have a safe trip. Work hard....that's what rehab's all about! Love, Sally
