9141This is Good News. I'm so glad that Rick will improve with treatment. You must be so happy.
6574Praise the Lord Shirlene! What wonderful news. It sounds like this Dr. is providential also. Ps 30:"Thou has turned for me my mourning into dancing; thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness" Stay encouraged in the Lord. It will be a long road ahead of you both, but start each day in prayer and praise, that will give you strength to make it through each day. There is a scripture where the Lord says not to think about tomorrow or the days past, but to think about today. I'll have to look it up, but that's what I recommend, taking it one day at a time and not think about how much longer you have before you see results or healing. Healing comes everyday, with the mind first and then the body. Some people call it positive thinking, I call it waiting on the Lord and drawing strength from Him. :)

158560Glad Rick is doing well, sometimes the road to recovery seems so long and takes a lot of determination on the patient's part and tough love for the family. Just keep encouraging him and tell him how proud you are for his hard work to do the exercises and he will do well I believe. Tell him don't give in or give up. God Bless you both. Sara
10191That is such good news. I bet you are both estatic. I'll email you this weekend. Life has been very hectic.
10494Amen! So glad that Rick has lots to hope and pray for in the near future. Will keep you both in my prayers. So glad you're still giving out angels.

Beth, you are so cute - I gave him a choice of several and he picked out the one that he wanted - he said she spoke to him - it was one with golden wings and she had red roses in her arms. Hehehe!

Mildred, thanks - we so appreciate it - now if we can keep the therapy going without it costing us an arm and a leg - literally.
27683Hallelujah! Praise be to God! YES, Rick WILL get use of his arm and hand, though it may be a long, difficult road to that success. We will continue to pray for you both! Yes, it is GOOD NEWS, indeed!

1312shirlener I am thrilled for you. Let us pray all will come true. Hugs.Edith
57801Shirlene I do believe in prayer. I will still be praying for you and Rick. Remember the verses.
James 5:16 "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

462680O Shirlene, I am so happy for you and Rick. I believe in the power of prayer and I am positive that as Rick improves God will speak through him to others in ways we can't imagine right now. Thank you for sharing. And Shirlene don't forget to take care of yourself. If I were closer I would come and visit.

11473Dear Shirlene,
I don't know Rick, but if he is anything like you, he has blessed the people around him already. I'm sure that the good Lord will let him continue in that manner.
Love and prayers to the both of you,
Barb
29871Marvelous Shirlene.Been through it all with Ron, He has never gotten his fine motor strength back in his left hand but Only my self knows this, I still push him to use the left hand as much as possible, I remember playing all kinds of marble &rock games & insisting he keep his right hand behind him & use only his left to pick up marble/ rock or whatever, encouragement every step of the way. this is the way we make it happen. He sometimes has problems with dropping things with left hand but there are ways to get around it. Keep on keeping on little lady. cheers for u & him. *

Lillian, thank you - I do hope that we can get some, if not all of it back - he is right handed. I will use these tips and thank you so much my dear friend for you suggestions. *4U
145789Shirlene, it is good news. And to have a doctor sensitive to God's wishes, priceless. We will keep on praying for you and for Rick.
168966Yes this is good news. I pray that Rick will even heal faster. Shirlene your angels have spread joy all over the place and will remind the receiver of the special people they had met.
109762Shirlene, praise God for all the great things He has done for Rick and you. Stay strong in your faith and God will continue to guide you all through His plans for your lives. These are difficult times for you guys, but nothing is to great for our Lord. In Christ, Judy

360438Thank you for sharing the good news. It is great to have a doctor who is a believer and who can appreciate the angel that you gave him (bless you for such kindness and courage). I will continually pray for you both. I also believe with continual therapy Rick WILL get better.
15057So happy to hear good news! Thinking of and praying for both of you!!
35675My dear Shirlene,
So glad to read that Rick is doing so well. I have tears in my eyes just reading this post. I do hope and pray that every day he continues to improve.
It's a blessing having a doctor who is a believer.
Thanks for sharing this great news. Love and blessings Chris

Chris, now wipe your tears - thank you for believing too. I do believe that with the sort of prayers being said on Rick's behalf - that he will continue to improve - it may take some time - to reconnect those circuts - but at least we have the time, now. Love!
234256What wonderful news! And what wonderful faith you have! Thank you for sharing that faith and your kindness here - you are a shining example to all of us. I don't say much, but I do send thoughts and prayers your way often. Much love and hugs, Lois

Lois, thank you so much for those thoughts and prayers - we do appreciate them.
6982My dear friend Shirlene, I've been waiting for a good news like that! You and Rick are in my thoughts very often, and I say a prayer to you all day long. I know all the God's Angels are also watching over you and Rick. I'm also so glad to know that Cuties are helping you with donations, I just wish I could do more than just pray for you. All my love to you, Yoriko.

Yoriko dear - you have done plenty by praying - you have your own ordeal and that is what you need to concentrate on now. Thank you for all you have done.
