Dear Friends
It's now under a week till John is admitted into hospital. I (Amanda) keep saying to people "It's John's last Monday at work"; half with laughter, half with extreme sadness. Working with my spouse has been a major blessing and I cannot imagine him not being by my side.
As we make preparations for this coming week, we see many things that need to fall into place; some we can control, others we cannot.
There is still a small amount of unpacking to do in our apartment; our good friend Jeremy curbed us some new small dressers which will be a major help! We are so pleased we serve a God who meets not only our emotional and mental needs but the practical!
We are also in the process of ensuring our health insurance is going to cover John's treatment; we are pretty confident this will be resolved but please pray for a breakthrough here.
On a praise note! Last week when John and I were at the hospital the valet parking assistant wrecked our car door! Why praise you ask? Well first they said, "don't worry we will fix it for free and in the meantime we can give you a car". Anyway long story short they said the car would cost more to fix than the blue book value of the car so they gave us the car back and a check for $1500. Again, why praise? Well we went to a local garage who will fix it all up for $640! Leaving us with $860 to keep!
Both of us know this next year will be expensive and so this provides a safety net for us! How wonderful is our God.
We want to thank you all for getting behind us, loving us, praying for us, giving sacrificially to us and being wonderful friends
We love you all
John and Amanda
