Friday the 29th of February

Mom was not able to receive a full treatment yesterday because her biliruben count was still to high. The big concern now is that there is nothing major effecting this count. Mom will go for an ultrasound today at Pottsville hospital. Our hope is that there is nothing major affecting this count and that whatever is causing the biliruben count to rise is correctable.

On a more positive note mom's weight continues to move in the right direction. Yesterday she weighed 96 pounds (some of that weight is due to fluid retention.) Also her tumor markers have continued to drop.

Hi Lynne, family, Here is a descripton of our King, Jesus that I just love. Hope you will too. God Bless You Lynne as we continue to lift you up in the presence of our King.

Love Ya All, Dennis and Linda Ott

This is from
By Dr. S.M. Lockridge

The Bible says my King is a seven-way king....He's the King of the Jews; that's a racial king....He's the King of Israel; that's a national King....He's the King of Righteousness....He's the King of the Ages.....He's the King of Heaven....He's the King of Glory....He's the King of kings, and He's the Lord of lords. That's my King. Well....I wonder, do you know Him?.... David said, "The Heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament shows His handiwork. My King is a sovereign King. No means of measure can define His limitless love. No far seeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His shoreless supply. No barrier can hinder Him from pouring out His blessings. He's enduringly strong....He's entirely sincere....He's eternally steadfast....He's immortally graceful....He's imperially powerful....He's impartially merciful....... Do you know Him?

He's the greatest phenomenon that ever crossed the horizon of this world. He's God's Son....He's a sinner's Saviour....He's the centerpiece of civilization....He stands in the solitude of Himself....He's august....He's unique....He's unparalleled....He's unprecedented....He's the loftiest idea in literature....He's the highest personality in philosophy....He's the supreme problem in higher criticism....He's the fundamental doctrine of true theology....He's the cardinal necessity for spiritual religion....He's the miracle of the age.... He's the superlative of everything good that you choose to call Him....He's the only one qualified to be an all sufficient Saviour...... I wonder if you know Him today?

He supplies strength for the weak....He's available for the tempted and the tried....He sympathizes and He saves....He strengthens and sustains....He guards and He guides....He heals the sick....He cleanses lepers....He forgives sinners....He discharges debtors....He delivers captives....He defends the feeble....He blesses the young....He serves the unfortunate....He regards the aged....He rewards the diligent....and He beautifies the meek....... I wonder if you know Him?

Well, my King....is the King....He's the key to knowledge....He's the wellspring to wisdom....He's the doorway of deliverance....He's the pathway of peace....He's the roadway of righteousness ....He's the highway of holiness....He's the gateway of glory....... Do you know Him?

Well....His office is manifold....His promise is sure....His light is matchless....His goodness is limitless....His mercy is everlasting....His love never changes....His word is enough....His grace is sufficient....His reign is righteous....and His yoke is easy, and his burden is light. I wish I could describe Him to you, but He's indescribable....He's incomprehensible....He's invincible....He's irresistible.

Well, you can't get Him out of your mind....You can't get Him off of your hand....You can't out live Him, and you can't live without Him....The Pharisees couldn't stand Him, but they found out they couldn't stop Him....Pilate couldn't find any fault in Him....The witnesses couldn't get their testimonies to agree....Herod couldn't kill Him....Death couldn't handle Him, and the grave couldn't hold Him. Yea!!!, that's my King, that's my King.

Father..."Thine is the Kingdom....and the Power....and the Glory....Forever"....and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever. How long is that? And ever...and ever...and when you get through with all the forevers, then.... AMEN!....AMEN!

Hi my friend, Lynne,
I'm always here for you, you
can count on that.
I wish you luck today with your
ultra sound and lots of prayers
coming your way.
Some weeks, I can't get my full
dosage of chemo due to my white
blood cell count being low.
My cat scans have been good and
my tumor marker number is still
low which is a good sign.
You and I are on the same
wave length, and we know God
is with us also.
Love to you and your family,
Lynne, and continue to eat well.
Your friend,
Vicky

Todays word from His heart to mine... I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will heal you. 2 Kings 20:5

Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise. Jeremiah 17:14

Heading to the Poconos. Want to come?? See you next week. I'll be up. Love, Sis or Sunny or Sandy

Dear Aunt Lynne,
I missed having dinner with you and Uncle Randy this week...it through off my routine :). Ryan and I were in a van driving up through the Rocky Mountains last Thursday when I heard that the Lord provided a good result from the MRI. I was concerned about the possibility of further bone problems, and overjoyed to hear the news. I even turned on some worship music on my iPod! I guess that there was some negative news this week, but shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil? Keep pressing forward, and I'll keep praying for you. He has provided thus far and his generosity toward his people doesn't change. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. (Job 2:10; Psalm 145; Isaiah 40:28-31)
