Greetings and Happy Father’s Day!!
On a last minute whim we decided to spend Father’s Day in San Francisco.
Irene, Jocelyn, JoAnna and I spent most of the afternoon in the Family Room and Solarium located in the Oncology Ward on the 11th floor of UCSF. It was a clear and beautiful day… views of the city were breathtaking. It was a relaxing environment and Irene was resting comfortably…
Just before Jocelyn left for home (JoAnna flies back to S. Cal tomorrow morning), we went back to Irene’s private room, anointed her with oil and prayed over her, asking God to heal and restore her body. We had previously spent time reading in Exodus 15, Isaiah 53 and Psalm 121. It’s a special time to pray as a family to the God of the universe, trusting Jesus wholeheartedly as He leads us through this challenging season of our lives. We are desperately dependent upon His sovereign will to be done. We sense His presence and know from His Word that he will never leave us nor forsake us.
There has been an outpouring of support for blood and platelet donors. We’re overwhelmed with thanksgiving…
Irene is scheduled for dialysis several times this next week; her blood levels are responding to the chemo and we move forward in faith and confidence….
