Miraculous

I can't thank you enough for your prayers. Your faith is working miracle after miracle.

Robert is on his way home.

Earl's father-in-law is sitting up on his bed today and talking to to his family.

And my daddy is home!

These are truly miracles that can only have been brought about by the faith and prayers being sent heavenward. We have a loving father in heaven who is mindful of us and hears our prayers. We are so grateful to each of you and especially to Him.

The Story

It started with a bloody nose. Dad had just returned from two weeks in Hawaii and was feeling extremely tired. His nose started bleeding and they just couldn't stop it. On the third morning, he woke up to blood-covered sheets and pillows. April took him to Urgent Care and after several tests, they sent him home diagnosing him with pnemonia and broncitis.

The next morning April received a call from the doctor at the Urgent Care he was very adament about dad getting attention from his regular doctor.

Once dad's doctor called he gave April the bad news of the test results and urged her to get to the emergency room.

April called Karen and she called all of the kids who immediately got to the emergency room. A few hours later the doctor came in to inform Dad that he had Leukemia.

Chemotherapy treatments would begin immediately and blood transfusions would be necessary and often.

Our family has been rocked by this unexpected news, but we are rallying together and helping Dad fight this battle together. We have connected from Hawaii to Utah to Iowa and New Jersey via Skype. We have united together in fasting and prayer. We are blessed to be part of such a wonderful family. And we LOVE OUR DADDY!
