Trials and Blessings (Prayers for Joe)


It seems that when your spouse is out of town that is when trials happen. This Saturday night Joe had a seizure. You may be asking why I title this post blessings. It is because when ever trials arise that is when you can see the blessings. I have several blessings from this weekend. The big one is knowing that God is in control and the others are as follows. Having Jon next door when Joe was having his seizure. And Katie was a huge help when talking to the 911 operator. Then of course the EMT crew. Then Bill Williams saw the flashing lights from his house and came over. Next Rachel came over and stayed with the kids for a while and even cleaned up my house. (Thanks Rachel) The doctor and the hospital did all the test he could and was very thorough. All the tests came back normal and we were able to return home around 2:15am. Another big blessing is knowing that I have the prayers of my brothers and sisters. Although David was not here because he is hunting we have had communication and just being able to talk to him is a blessing. David will be home Tuesday afternoon. The boat is high and dry up the creek and they are waiting on the next highest tied to lift the boat. Today we had a follow up appointment and the Dr. is waiting on a call from a neurologist in Seattle. Joe has a EEG test on Friday at 7:30am please pray all is normal. I am so blessed to have my family and friends praying for us. Thank you to everyone for your prayers and your support during this time.
God is Good and He is in Control!
