Updates

After a few days of up and down news, much like a roller-coaster, Natalie has been allowed to go home! Not out of the woods yet, but she is doing much better and was allowed to leave the hospital.

Baby Tatyana will remain in hospital for about another week.

Our daughter Rebecca is getting married in less than two weeks, and Steph is preparing her Russian adventure, and it looks like I'll be there a few days later for a few days.

Life is busy...interesting. Who says being a Christ Follower is boring. Life gets thrown your way...and how you handle it is the real test. As C.S Lewis once wrote:
“We're not necessarily doubting that God will do the best for us; we are
wondering how painful the best will turn out to be"

Life is precious

















Made a quick trip to Calgary to see Tatyana, but also to see our daughter Natalie. Please continue to pray for her, as her kidney's and bladder are still not functioning properly....one of her kidney's is bleeding and they are trying to discover, on a long weekend, why this is happening. Taty is doing well....sleep, eat, you know the routine. It was hard to leave Natalie today.
