Cathie had a Glorious Birthday and Pain Breakthrough.
The Lord Blessed in so many ways. Your encouragements was magnificent, dramatic, and effective. I can't thank you or the Lord enough. Praise Him From Whom All Blessings Flow.
I almost, no, I did get giddy! My entire being jumped with joy!
Hundreds of emails and greetings where sent. Thank you!!! Cathie is so encouraged by the outpouring of your response, she wants to responded to each as time allows. She has a limited time of energy and sitting. I will help, as needed, but she is pretty intent on thanking you personally. She has started on Thank You notes from hospital flowers, gifts, visits, and prayer responses.
Yesterday was a major breakthrough day for her. The Lord Blessed, through you, with the encouraging emails, notes, cards, deliveries of gardenia and azalea plants (which she plans on planting around our back patio to remember the Lord's Blessings), beautiful cut flowers, a wonderful box of dark chocolate covered beautiful strawberries, delivery of a beautiful basket of pears, a basket of special cheese, crackers and a bottle of wine.
She greeted a couple of special friends at the door, who come by with a La Madeleine lunch to share with her. It was short, but nice for her. She crashed for an hour or so afterwards, but was refreshed. Don't be surprised if she answers the door looking like she is ready to go, as if nothing happened. She is anticipating the Lords continued work, but knows the fractures will continue to take time to recover.
Additional, very special Blessings from the Lord were received. He delivered her from the need of Morphine. She has been off for the last 24 hours. She was on 30 mg every 12 hours. The pain has reduced considerably. She can't wait to get off the other short term narcotic.
She sleep very sound for 12 hours last night. She only got up twice for the short term pain help. She is able to sit up a bit longer today.
God is so Good. His Faithful---You, are so Good. Thank you.
Your continued prayers for maneuvering through the medication changes, fatigue, pain reduction, and now, Cathie overdoing are the specific prayers.
In His Hands,
Homer
Wonderful. Praise the Lord for the good news.

We are certainly blessed that Cathie is doing so well and that makes me very grateful that our merciful God has rescued Cathie to continue her important earthly work.
I wish Cathie a belated Happy Birthday. Why am I not surprised that Cathie's birthday was the exact date of the New Hampshire primary.
We will continue to listen to God for His guidance on how we will save these sacred shores.
Meanwhile, Cathie must rest and get well. We think about her and pray for her every day.
Well, I know she wasn't happy with the results.

A good friend from Dallas has kept me posted on Cathie's progress, and I am thrilled that she is doing so well. More must be done to keep drunks from driving. Thank God for bringing you both through this near tragedy.

Dear Cathie,
I am so happy to hear about your breakthrough! You are on the mend and what a nice birthday present. I thought of often on your birthday, prayed for you; yet I was in bed before I realized I hadn't put 2 + 2 together.
I am so glad you celebrated it with friends. Happy Birthday anyway!
You are loved!
