Thursday, November 6

Wow! Lots has happened in the past few days.

1. Jack and Alice and the children arrived in Gorham NH after a 3-day journey from Florida. Praise God for a safe and uneventful trip. It is good to be close to Mom and Dad again.

2. Mom has continued to make tremendous progress. Her case manager called it a "dramatic turnaround." We call it "God's healing, in answer to prayer!"

3. Mom's care team is now ready to release her to go HOME - as in 12 School Street, Gorham, where her husband is waiting for her!

So here's the current plan, Lord willing:
  • On Friday, Alice will drive to Portland to sit in on Mom's therapy and meet with her care team, to get a better idea exactly where she is along the road to recovery.
  • On Saturday we will work hard to get the house ready for her return, and . . .
  • On Monday, we will bring her home!
Thank you for praying!!!!! Please pray for wisdom and strength as we set the house up to be comfortable and safe for her, and that her transition to home will go smoothly and be joyous for all concerned. Please pray for Alice as primary caregiver, to clearly see Mom's needs and be able to meet them as well as care for her other family.

We are so grateful for your concern and love. Thank you for being with us on this journey.

It's wonderful to be reminded that our God is "able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think." So glad of this good news. Ruth Brendle
