There is a time.. a time to sleep.... that's all I can seem to remember from Ecc. 3... and if I'm wrongly interpreting scripture... you would too if the only sleep that you've had was about 20-30min sections for the last 5 days!!! Last night.... long story short, (well, sort of...:) we felt that she MUST HAVE SLEEP! But her brace doesn't fit correctly and since it was Fri p.m. and the weekend is upon us... they told us we would have to wait til Mon for the techs to come and fix it but there was NO getting it off... she had to wear it 24/7!!!! OUCH!!!!.. was all we heard for hours yesterday! ... that's a background what we were facing last night as 11 pm came around. We had SPECIAL prayer and God came and did the amazing! He sent us two WONDERFUL nurses who knew that if she didn't get sleep, things would NOT be good today... so with that as a Duo... Jesus and great nurses... we got the 1st 2 hr section of sleep that we've had since Sat p.m. BEFORE surgery. She would awaken and take the meds that they needed her to take, say OUCH often, but then turn and go right back to sleep! Oh Hallelujah! Sleep, precious sleep!!! Thanks to ALL of you for praying... keep praying we still have lots of "steps to take" before she will be able to make the "flight of stairs" that await her at our Haus...

Oh, I'm sooooo GLAD that Jesus helped last night. I did pray often that Natasha and Y'all would be able to sleep last night. So, happy for the answer to prayer!!

Love y'all bunches and we are praying for all of the STEPS that have to be taken before she climbs the STEPS in your house. God knows, cares, and is ABLE!!

Thanks for updating!! We check your blog lots and are always glad to see a new post. (Though I don't know HOW or WHEN you find time to write one! =)
