May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him,
so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Home and Giving Thanks

Carol came home from her third stay at Stanford on Saturday evening. As expected,Carol is quite exhausted her first few days at home but boy is she glad to be home!

Today Carol woke up extremely weak and so the doctor wanted her blood count checked. After having it tested it was determined that she needed a blood transfusion. She has spent the afternoon at Valley Care Medical Center getting two units of blood and a unit of platelets. She is feeling much better now and is scheduled to be released this evening around 8:00.

If you would like to drop by for a short visit over the Thanksgiving weekend, please call the house first and Mark will let you know if Carol is up for it.

Mark and Carol are giving thanks for each of you this Thanksgiving holiday.

Carol, my heart has hurt today thinking of you so ill in ICU. So grateful to hear an adverse reaction to a drug was the problem, and hopefully you are resting well and beginning to get strong again. You are so very dear to me Carol and I love you,
