Thanks be to God for having cleared the paths that are cleared and opened the doors that stand open before you as He continues His healing of your son … of His child … of His creation.<BR/><BR/>As difficult as I know it HAS to be, please try to continue to trust that it really is not at all a matter of IF God will heal Joseph, or WHEN God will heal Joseph. Please try to trust that God IS HEALING Joseph … and that He will continue to do so in the absolute best possible way.<BR/><BR/>And when you get scared, (as God knows you will) it might be a good idea to go back up a few comments and re-read what Heather wrote on December 15, 2007 at 12:01 PM.

It is AMAZING! The kitchen is huge and everyone has their own cupboard/ fridge with locks. ALL dishes are sanatized in the dishwasher because there are many children with low immune systems (the whole place is kept very clean too). There is tons of stuff for the siblings to do-- a play area, movies, toys/ games, x-box/ playstation thingys. The rooms are very nice, like a nice hotel. The entire place is kid-friendly.<BR/>I would recommend that you give it a try and if it doesn't work, you can find something else. I was very impressed with the facilities.<BR/>To everyone else-- Put money in the Ronald McDonald House boxes the next time you are at McDonalds. It is seriously an incredible blessing that they provide for the families of sick kids.<BR/>I will be praying for Joe and your family as you adjust to the quick move and the many changes. I am also praying for an amazing recovery for Joe so that he can go back to being a regular wild three year old. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003014250576700712.post-12208687599592252082007-12-15T15:29:00.000-06:002007-12-15T15:29:00.000-06:00Praying for your continued strength and wisdaom, P...Praying for your continued strength and wisdaom, <BR/>Philip,Mary and the girlsMary Vagnonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07242107626727131701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003014250576700712.post-7362580253108722762007-12-15T15:08:00.000-06:002007-12-15T15:08:00.000-06:00Hi, I was connected to your blog through a friends...Hi, <BR/>I was connected to your blog through a friends, and have been praying for you ever since.. I have a close friend that works for St. Jude [ and just loves it, which says alot!]. She says that St. Jude in comparison to other hospitals like MD Anderson is personal, and intimate, and in her opinion provides better care because you're not lost in a sea of people. Of course she is a bit bias, but I thought I would pass that along. I also wanted to let you know that if you're still having trouble finding where you'll stay, etc I can get in touch with her and see what she says, and see if she knows of anyone or has any ideas. This long winded post is just to say, if you need the extra help with that, or anything else, she is an amazing Godly Christian and would be more than willing to help in any way possible, or connect you to the right person..<BR/><BR/>I am praying for you all, and have had you on my heart.
