Sam Update:

 Just hopping on to ask for more prayers. Sam and I made it home this morning from Dallas, but around noon, I had to call an ambulance to come get him. He couldn't breathe very well.  We are still at the ER waiting to be transferred back to Dallas.  Sam has blood and air in his chest wall. He is in a lot of pain. extra prayers please.  

love you all.

This is my first comment but I've been following you for a year (at least). You've always been a blessing and now it's my turn to let you know you & Sam are in my prayers, too. May the good(!) Lord bring peace "like a river"to you both through this current trial. You know that He loves you and has promised never to leave nor forsake His children but trials can still be hard sometimes. And may this whole episode be a tremendous witness of the good Lord's loving care & mercies not only to you but also to the medical staff.

Oh Shug. That was not good news but I am hoping your sweetheart is much better now. It must have been so scary for you to have to call for the ambulance. It is so painful to see our loved ones suffering. Shug, I am praying, and have been for awhile now, for both you and Sam. May the Lord protect and keep both of you.

Oh Shug, I am saying prayers right now for Sam and for you. I hope he feels better at once. Not being able to breathe is terrible. Sending comforting thoughts to you this evening.
