Help for Alivia

Monday, May 30, 2011
First, thank you for all the good wishes and prayers for Harry.  He is having a really rough time right now getting through the prep for the colonoscopy/endoscopy.  It is NOT going well.  So, please keep praying.  We are struggling getting him to drink all the prep.  I will give y'all an update tomorrow when all the procedures are complete.

Secondly, I want to share with you an opportunity to help a friend bring their daughter home from China.  Kathy and I know each other through the adoption community and they have a lovely big family.  I even had the pleasure of meeting Kathy and her oldest daughter at Epcot last Fall:)

She recognized our family (Dave, I think) at Epcot!  How cool is that?

Please go to Alivia's website and bid on some great goodies in the raffle.  Also, please pass this info along to others you know.  They are getting ready to travel and they really need to raise funds.  Unfortunately, they have experienced some unexpected medical issues that have really put a chink in their financial plans.

    So sorry Harry has to go through the prep and the scopes. These things are hard enough for an adult--I know I found the prep difficult--let alone for a child. You all are in my prayers.

    Hello, sweet friend. Your message brought tears to my eyes; thank you for thinking of me.

    I can see China from where I stand...it won't be long now; "I will not be moved."

    Kim,

    I am definitely praying for sweet Harry -- peace and wisdom for you all! I've been terrible about commenting, but I've been catching up on blogs on my iPhone in the wee hours of the night. =)
    Much love to you and prayers are coming your way.
