Well Wishes from Devin and Veronica

Dear loved ones. This morning as Connor and I checked the updates we were brought to tears. I feel Connor is old enough to be brought into the loop. We can get so caught up in what we think life should look like. The story God is choosing you to write shows us that life is hard and not what we call fair. It puts our wants into perspective. Dave you need to write a book with your daily updates. They are truly touching. We are praying for you, hurting with you and celebrating the small gifts that Irene was given today.

Love and prayers,

Devin and Veronica

Phyllis as Irene’s Spiritual Mentor

7 p.m…

Our close friend, Phyllis Cauwels, spent most of the day with Irene. Phyllis is Irene’s most influential spiritual mentor. She has been a model of what I would characterize as “relevant Godliness”. In other words, Phyllis is an expert at applying Biblical truth and wisdom into practical life experience. For years Irene and Phyllis would meet weekly for breakfast, encouragement and Bible study.

Irene had a much better day than yesterday, and for that we’re very grateful. Her nausea subsided and she was able to eat two small meals.

Sometimes it feels somewhat odd to share such HIGH HIGHS and LOW LOWS of certain day’s events on the updates but what you’re going to read is exactly where we’re at…on that particular day. My friend and partner, Steve Azevedo, recently described it to me as “being in the backseat” on the journey. I think that description probably fits well for those of you who follow our daily updates.

We cannot thank you enough for your expressions of love and prayer support for Irene. May God bless YOU for your continued prayerful intercession on her behalf.

Well Wishes from Cheryl McKay

Your family is precious to many of us prayer warriors who are standing with you in this time, even in the midst of this news today.

Please assure Irene that she IS a light, shining in the midst of a storm. That her testimony has been a blessing to many of us. And Dave, the way you write about her, with such honesty and the most beautiful outpouring of love for her, is amazing.  Inspiring.

You’re in many prayers, from coast to coast. I’m so thankful I met you, too, so I could get to know your beautiful daughter, JoAnna.
She’s a blessing every time I get to see her.
Cheryl
