The last couple of weeks have been a very rough ride for Bree and I. A week ago today Bree found out over the email that one of her aunts had passed away from breast cancer. There had been some issues with one of the other families on Bree's mom's side of the family and Bree and Cyndi have been ignored by that side of the family for around three years. They didn't even know that she was sick and one of Bree's cousins let her know. They also live in Utah so even if we were invited to the services we would not be able to show our support, love and respect.
It goes without saying that this is extremely hard for Bree and Cyndi and that they need a lot of prayer. Please also pray for the family of Bree's aunt, it is no small thing to loose someone you love, especially to something like cancer.
Yesterday was Halloween, and it was also a very crazy day. Around 12:30 pm we were called and informed that Bree's grandpa, Arthur Johansen had been in an accident. He was receiving his dialysis treatment at a hospital in Virginia Beach, while they were on vacation. He was not being watched very closely and he woke up in the middle of the procedure (very disoriented) and pulled the stuff (needles, tubes etc.) out of himself and began to walk around. At some point he fell and hit his head.
They ran some tests and found sometime later that he had a blood clot in his brain. They are still not sure if it caused the fall or if it was caused by the fall. Once they found the clot they rushed Arthur into emergency brain surgery and gave him a fifty fifty chance of survival. A little while later we were informed that he was out of surgery but his chances had not improved and we are still (@ 8:43 am eastern time the next day) waiting for any news.
Please pray for Bree's grandpa and all of our family during this time, we all really need it.
To top off our Halloween, after I got out of class at 4:30 I got in a wreck and my car got banged up a bit. I had the green arrow for a left hand turn and the guy wasn't paying attention and he slammed into me while he was making a right hand turn.
Nobody was hurt, that is the most important thing. He was very apologetic and helpful which made things a whole lot easier and God kept me very calm and very polite (which all the praise goes to him because as most of you who know me can attest, I am not the calmest of creatures on a regular day) so it was not as bad as it could have been.
The guys name is Isaac so please pray for him also that God would bless him and that if he is not saved that God would work in his life and send someone to lead him to salvation.
So yeah, kind of a crazy stretch of life. Please continue to pray for all of these requests and also for our school and work during this time.
thanks,
K
