“She will give birth to a son,

and you are to name Him Jesus,

because He will save His people from their sins.”

~Mathew 1:21, HCSB~

Wonderful news, Jack McCarte, “Miss” Mary Miller’s son-in-law is doing very well and was moved to a regular hospital room yesterday afternoon. The family is very relieved and thankful. “Miss” Mary asked me to pass her appreciation on to you.

Jadon’s Journey – 12-8-15

(Jadon) had a great checkup today with his neurologist. He read all 4 of the words she wrote down for him. She was very impressed with him and his progress. We just love her. She was able to get a $4000 test approved for Jadon. This test will give us lots of information on how his brain functions. We are now on the 2 month waiting list for a neuropsychological test. She also had to show Jadon off to her nurses. She made him walk,talk,and put his hands above his head. She then showed them the CT scan of Jadon’s half brain. Of course they couldn’t believe it. She loves showing him off. She calls him miracle boy.

Kentwood Manor

It was a joy to give packages to the patients at Kentwood Manor early yesterday evening. A group from FBC, Kentwood sang Christmas carols to guitar music as we walked up and down the halls giving out packages. Members contributed the items we distributed. The packages and the caroling were big hits!
