Prayer Request

**Update as of 3 minutes ago...I just talked to James' Mom, Joni (aka Nana to the kids) and she said that the doctor's have released Aunt Debbie to go home! Wooohooo!!! Needless to say, we're super excited. They seem to think it was just a virus that was doing some crazy things to her, but we're just thanking God it wasn't something more serious. Aunt Deb, if you happen to read this...we're soooo thankful that everything turned out okay and we love you! And to the rest of you...thanks for saying a prayer for our family, we do appreciate the support.**


I thought about sending out an email but thought it would be easier to post this on the blog...

James' Aunt, Debbie, who I claim as well
(because she's wonderful...James' whole extended family are the salt of the earth kind of people--I'm blessed to be married into this family...but I'm chasing a rabbit so I'll get back on track now)
...was hospitalized due to some heart issues this past week. She has had numerous tests run without any conclusive results so they are now doing a little bit more of an exploratory procedure. Please pray for the doctor's guidance and wisdom as they perform this procedure. Please pray for her family as well...everyone is pretty much on edge (common sense, I know)...but it's a scary thing when it's your wife or your mom or your daughter in the hospital and the doctors can't pinpoint the reason this is happening. And of course pray for Aunt Debbie...this was not apart of the plans for the Christmas season...I mean we women have shopping to get done, and lists to complete...and it goes on and on...there's just no time to deal with health issues that may arise...but unfortunately things do not always play out like we say they should...so please pray that her health will be restored, that she will regain strength...and maybe even a little patience in dealing with this. Actually, don't pray for patience that is never a good idea...leave that part out. :)
