Faithful friends!
Truly the Lord is good. I was to see my breast surgeon on Friday, but his office called on Thursday and said they could see me on Thursday afternoon. Yahoo! The last drain was removed and plans were laid to take my first shower since my surgery.
I am getting physically stronger every single day. Some girlfriends (thank you Pamela and Christie) came by yesterday and got me out of the house for a much needed change of scenery.
It is hard to not be physically able to hold ones children. My arms ache at times to hold the baby, and to play in the floor with the kids. I know that my physical limitations are only for a period of time, and i am leaning on God's time for my healing.
Thank you all for your kind words. My heart is thankful for your prayers. Of course i am sorry to hear of some of your own struggles with this disease and am adding you to my own prayer list for God's healing hand to touch you. I have witnessed His healing powers many times. The Lord declares He will restore you to health and heal your wounds. Jeremiah 30:17. Lets all claim it together!
I will continue to keep up the blog to keep you posted. My love to you all!
God Bless you and keep you.
Your servant,
karen

Karen and Daniel,
I logged on today to see how you and your sister are doing. It was great to see that you were able to get to Jonesboro. We are thinking about all of you in these tough but blessed days.
I drive by the house two or three times a day, so let us know if there is anything that you need.
God Bless,
Susan and Park Anders
Thinking of you this weekend and all that you have endured! PTlord you both are so strong. I continue to pray for a healing for Kim! I am so glad you spent precious time with your family in Jonesboro.
Hang in there,

Jeremiah, I say "Amen!" to that promise: "I will give you back your health again and heal your wounds." Karen, He IS, and He will. I thank God for His handiwork in your life and your whole family's lives. Thanks for keeping us all posted on your progress. Love you all. Blanche
Hi Karen,
I love reading your updates...so glad to hear that you are healing more every day. I am excited for the day when baby Fiona is lying in your arms again. We continue to pray every day for you, Kim your entire family.
Blessings to you and yours for a beautiful weekend,
Shelley and Paul Ahmed
Hey Karen. I logged on to check how you are doing. So glad you are typing and those drains are out!!!! That is so awesome that Rob & Paige flew you to Jonesboro. God is so great how he places people in our lives!! Let me know if there is anything I can do. Both my kids are in school...so I can always come over and run errands for you. Prayeres continue for you and your family and sisters family. In His love, Cherie
Karen,
Hey! It's been so long! I heard of your newest mountain to climb and have been praying so much! I put you and kim on my church's prayer list and many have been asking about you. I look forward to hearing of your complete healing!
Love,
Leigh Anne Woodford (Seger)
Karen,
Your faith and positive attitude shining through once again! It's been forever timewise but feels like only yesterday when we were either playing basketball or flying around the track!
You and Kim are on our prayer list at FBC Sheridan. Marci had emailed me and told me about your battle (which you will no doubt conquer!). We all will continue to lift you both up in prayer as well as your families.
Keep the FAITH!!!

It was wonderful to see you today at church - I thought you looked great. I pray you are feeling well too. If you need anything, please let us know! Love ya :-)
Karen,
I hope you are having a wonderful Labor Day weekend with your family and continue a speedy recovery. I'm glad you got to visit with Kim last week. I saw her children at the movies Sat. They are all beautiful. I guess life is truly a full circle. As I read thru your blog, I am seeing/remembering girls names that I went to grade school with in Beebe prior to moving to Pocahontas in the 4th grade!! It is a blessing to be surrounded by new as well as old friends. Wish you and your family well and hope our paths cross someday soon.
Love,
Leigh Ann (Daniel)Schmidt
Karen,
My mother forwarded my your blog. My heart breaks for you and your family but I know that you are a strong person with a foundation through God. I will add you and Kim to our prayer lists. Keep the faith and know that God only gives us what he knows that we can endure. You have always had a wonderful spirit and I know that this is just another hurdle thrown at you that you will be able to leap and become stronger. We love you and are praying for you, Kim, your parents, your spouses and your beautiful children.
Much love,

James and I have been following your blog regularly and are truly relieved to hear that you are doing so well. You and your family's struggles have encouraged us to keep our own lives in perspective.
Congratulations on having the drains out and finally getting to shower. Soon you will be rolling around in the floor with all the kids!
We will continue to keep you and yours in our thoughts and we look forward to more posts.
Sincerely,
Gina Bennett & James Martin
