December 16 Final Update

Today was a bit better than yesterday. I think the blood transfusion helped.

The pastor from the church stopped by. I know people want to give support by visiting me, but some times I just rather rest.

I found out today that our next door neighbor has MS. He is only about 35 years old. Although we are not close, they are good neighbors.

As for now, I’m going crawl up the stairs, take my pain killer and go to bed.

Good night.

Your are so right Ted. It surely doesn't matter how often we repeat a prayer. After you reminded me of that - I thought to myself, maybe it wasn't an "oops" that I typed the little prayer in twice. Maybe God was leading my thoughts and my fingers. I think it was because
my heart was aching for you and your lack of strength that my thoughts ended up twice on paper. Anyway, thanks for making me feel better about it. I appreciated that a lot.

Very glad that today was a bit better for you. I'm sure the blood you received did help. I've had that same experience a few times.

I'm very sad to hear of your very youthful neighbor having MS. Sure makes a person wonder why something like that happens to one person and spares someone else. That is when our faith is tested, and we simply and plainly have to trust God's plan.

My very best to you for a good day tomorrow. My prayers continue each and everyday for you. Ruth
