~Hello!
The Lord has been helping my right arm!! Thank you for praying for it! It is not healed completely yet, I cannot lift it all the way, but I can lift it higher than I could!
Praise Jesus!!
~PLEASE PRAY FOR OUR NOAH AND A TEAM FROM OUR CHURCH WHO ARE ON A MISSION'S TRIP TO NEW MEXICO. THEY REALLY NEED GOD'S WISDOM AND STRENGTH!~
"There's Pain in this World;
It's not always evenly distributed!"
I'm going catch you up on our lives.
We have walked through some deep waters in the last little while.
On Aug. 3rd Josh and Sarah told us that they were expecting a BABY!!!! We were super excited!!!
In fact on the first day of our Comargo camp Kimberly and I ran up to SURPRISE Sarah. We took her shopping, bought some Maternity Clothes, and a fun little baby item, helped her on some projects at her house, had a blast being together, and then went back to Camp on Tuesday.
HOWEVER, On Wednesday, Aug. 9th, Sarah called to tell me that she was having complications and thought she was LOSING THE BABY! :-(.
So, I ran up there to be with them and sure enough we thought we lost our baby that night. We were so SAD!!!
Sarah didn't have an OB/GYN yet. She was in the process of finding one, when she started miscarrying.
2 weeks later Sarah tells me that she is having horrible abdominal pain!
I told her that that didn't sound right. So, they cancelled their prayer meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 23rd. and took her to the ER. The Hospital did ultrasounds and blood test, hooked her up to an IV, to make sure was not dehydrated, and sent her home.
The next few days she still had horrible abdominal pains.
On Sunday, she ended up teaching Sunday school, playing the piano, and then coming home and FAINTING multiple times on Josh!
He called the Ambulance!
He told us to pray and PRAY WE DID!!
Then he called us and told us that she kept fainting and they couldn't figure out why.
He said that every time she fainted it was so SCARY!
He then told us some of the scariest words I have ever heard.
He said something like,
"IF YOU WANT TO SEE SARAH YOU HAD BETTER COME!!!!"
Phillip and I knew that it was SO SERIOUS, so we gobbled our Sunday Dinner and ran out the door!
I called a Kristin, a midwife friend of mine, and asked her what she thought could be wrong with Sarah.
She suggested Ectopic (Tubal) Pregnancy. She told me that if she had horrible pain out of her shoulders, that was one of the Serious signs.
Sure enough, the OB/GYN that Sarah was supposed to see the next day, came to the hospital and confirmed that Sarah had a tubal pregnancy. (Somehow the ultrasound technician had missed it.)
By the time we made it to the hospital Sarah was in excruciating Pain in her shoulders!!! It was sooo SCARY and SAD to see!
Several dear friends and family, and our dear church family were PRAYING SO HARD for Sarah!!! A niece of mine and a friend of mine were ANNOINTED that night for Sarah!!! THANK YOU!!!
We got to pray with SARAH and then
they rushed her back for Emergency surgery.
Her tube had erupted!
We came SO CLOSE to losing our Precious Sweet Sarah!!
How we rejoice that she is still with us and with her Dear Husband Josh!!
We are SO SAD about losing our baby, but know that our precious little baby is with Jesus and our family in Heaven!
We came home, and then our family was hit with another
HARD blow!!! :-(
There has been lots of sadness and tears, but Jesus is helping us.
