Hi everyone,
MD update from mom and dad today (Tues). Well it seems that her meeting with her cardiologist went well today. They liked him a lot and he'll be there during her MRI (IF she has one...not sure yet still). She'll have tons of tests and scans run all day tomorrow. She will have more CT's ran, prepped for surgery, etc....
Hillary and I made it down to Stigler tonight and we're staying at mom and dads. Crazy weather we had to drive through....thought we were going to get swept right up by a tornado!! We were driving 30 mph at one point on the turnpike! Wild! God was watching out for us though. We made it here safe and sound.
When we drove into Stigler we saw gray ribbons on the church columns, office doors, and on our parents mailbox and house lights. Word got around that there's one on her school door too! :) Thank you Audra and other "volunteer angels" for doing this for mom. She'll love it and think it's so special. We also got the bag of ribbons to wear on our clothes as well.....we love it!
Some have asked about mailing her cards and emails for her to get during her stay at MD....I'll have to wait until we have an official room number to give you so you can send it.
We'll be leaving early tomorrow a.m. and driving all day down to Houston. Please pray for our safe travels and mom's tests to go well.
Hillary said to tell her friends THANK YOU for the fun books, gift cards/money, etc. for her to use while we're in Houston. Brooke wants to say THANK YOU to all her friends that have given the family gift cards to use as well. Also, to Mrs. Kasbaum's (Brooke's) kids at school...I'll miss you and be good for your substitute while I'm gone.
To Mrs. Forrester's class: She misses you so much, wishes she could be there teaching you right now, and wants you to know to continue to learn and be good for Mrs. Bratton and Ms. Weaver.
Love and good night! Brooke & Hillary

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness girls did you see God's FULL RAINBOW this morning? Was that something or what. I wish I would have had my camera to take a picture and post it for you. I do believe that is him showing you that he is with you. Drive safely.
ReplyDeleteTo the entire family of Forrester family. You are my last thought of the day and my first thought when I wake. Doreen is one of those wonderful people that has left her footprint on the hearts of so many people of all ages. Not many people have the skills to do that, but I know I'm not telling you anything you don't already know. Please know that my prayers are with on this long, hard adventure.

ReplyDeleteThis is the link to get Doreen email messages in the hospital once she is established as a patient with a patient number that we can use....
Hang in there and drive safely
Here is Doreen's Rainbow posted on Stigler Public Schoo Website. Linda Henderson took a picture of it this morning. How many people saw that and thought of Doreen and prayed?

ReplyDeleteFor verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which be saith shall come to pass, he shall have whatsoever he saith.
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
.......Mark 11:22-24
