Happy Sunday!

I was able to go to church with my mom today, Hooray! I haven't been able to go to church in such a long time that it felt just wonderful. I was fighting sleep the whole time and had to leave to use the restroom twice, but it felt great to be worshiping with other believers again. God is so good and deserves so much praise and thanks!



I didn't tell you that I did get to the movie the other day. Marley and Me was really cute, but sad at the end. I would definitely recommend it, however. I only had to use the restroom 4 times while we were at the theater, I really got my exercise that day.


Today I am down to 116 lbs., though my feet are still swollen, I think the weight loss can stop now. It is hard to believe I could have had 25 lbs. of fluid in my body, no wonder I have felt so miserable!


I hope you have a wonderful rest of the weekend! My love to you all, Nancy

Nancy,

You look absolutely beautiful! I just can't even believe how good you look. I am so glad you got to go to church--what a great feeling that must of been!

It sounds like the fluid is just leaving your body quickly which is great. Keep making little strides and keep your head held high. You are amazing!

Big hugs to everyone!

Love you,

Debbie

You look absolutely amazing! Getting out and about must feel so wonderful. I'm so glad you made it to church and I am anxious to see Marley and Me. I can't believe how fast you lost all of that fluid. All those trips to the bathroom are well worth it! Have a wonderful night! I think of you often during my day!

Lots of love and hugs,
Amy

Please Help!

Hello Friends!  As most of you know, I have felt called to assist Christian artist Jason Dunn.  Jason made such a huge impact on my Hannah through his music and positive outlook at a time when she was emotionally and spiritually lost.  God used Jason to answer a very special prayer I had sent to him regarding Hannah. In the time since Jason and I started working together, a lot has happened.  We founded a charity for children and young adults with diabetes called the Jason Dunn Diabetes Foundation ( www.jasondunnfoundation.com ); we put together an 8 state tour to support this foundation; and now, we have launched a campaign through a website called Faith Launcher ( www.faithlauncher.com ) to help pay off the debt from Jason's new album, Abandon Progress, but also, hopefully, to raise money for our foundation. I would like to ask you to consider helping Jason and me by supporting his Faith Launcher Campaign.  You can do this by going to www.faithlauncher.com...

Pain is under control

I was very concerned last night when the pain returned with a vengeance, I almost had to return to the ER, but I was able to talk to my brother-in-law and he suggested I take a second pain pill and that made the difference. I have made sure to be on top of the pain and not let it get so bad again. Hannah stayed home again today, but I am hoping that she will be able to return to school tomorrow. This is a nasty bug! I couldn't let Scott have all of the St. Patty's day fun. What do you think, do curls suite me? Love to you all! Nancy
