Wednesday – Saturday (Part 2)
The weather got my satellite Tuesday night. Thursday, the repairman could not locate a problem. He ordered parts for a new system which he plans to install Tuesday. This morning, my computer works as it. Nothing has been done to “fix” it. Who knows? I’m just thankful it is working this morning.
Mrs. Fornie Schum
My brother-in-law’s aunt is still in ICU at North Oaks, but is doing better. Please continue to pray for her.

Debbie Luce Clark
Please pray for this former student. Her recent heart surgery doesn’t seem to have helped her health, so considerations are being made about another surgery, possibly installing a defibulator Friday, the 14th.
Andy Taylor
Andy is not well yet, but has already been through three rounds of medication. Pray for Andy and Betty as they try to get him better.
Betty Catherine Hatcher
“Miss” Betty Catherine has scheduled back surgery for mid-March. Pray for her as she waits and for the surgery to be effective.
Ferrie Gene Blackmon
“Miss” Ferrie Gene has been home for a couple of days. Her friends are helping her so she can rest and recover. Pray she will be patient about getting back to her normal activities.
Wanda Smith
Wanda is slowly improving after her recent foot surgery to remove scar tissue to another surgery. This recovery seems to be harder and slower. Pray for Lea and Wanda during this time.
Velta Morris (shared on Facebook)
As I always do when I have a medical update on my journey with Lymphoma, I want to share the news with you, my friends and family, who so faithfully pray for me and encourage me.
Today, I had a visit with my oncologist, and I received wonderful news! The CT scan from yesterday showed that the “bad places” had shrunk more, and I’m overjoyed with this good news. I will have another scan in August and a visit with the oncologist and will continue my maintenance infusions (not chemo) throughout the rest of this year.
Thank you for your prayers and concern. I’m so blessed to have each of you in my life, and pray that I will use my good news today to better serve Our Lord. Please continue to keep me in your prayers! To God Be the Glory, Great Things He Has Done!
Psalm 34:1: I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.
