Talked to Dana while on the road today. He said some people he met requested a post for prayers. Their names are Jim and Stefanie LaShear. She had a previous stroke and just had another one. Thanks for any and all prayers!

Wanted to give you an update on my sister. She sent me this e-mail today:

I finished my testing yesterday. They told me that they will send a copy of the test results to the neurologist and the attorney in 3 weeks. i go to the neurologist to get the test results he is the one who ordered the evaluation. ian and i dont particularly care for him as he has no bed side manner but is considered one of the best in his field. They told me that it takes 3 weeks as dr. fleximan reads each test dictates the results then it is typed in report format so that if used in court everything is documented and in order. The girl who tessted me told me that i did good on some of it and not so good on parts of it, but that by doing a wide range of testing the dr. will be able to determine what parts or part of my brain has been injured, and should be able to estimate the time of recovery.

She and her family continue to thank you for prayers also. :D

:P I'm still around!

They had to take in her last 3 pay stubs which were April, May, June and his last 3 from the job he lost due to taking her to doctor's appointments and such. He has a second evening job that he didn't loose but it doesn't pay hardly anything. They needed the 3 jobs to exist as his child support is so high and the county won't lower his support. It's political...and ridiculous.

They went to apply for food stamps and assistance today and here's the response I received from them:

we went to our appt at the county today and we are not eligible for any help from them as they take your gross pay and do not subtract child support........... just keep praying for us....... love us

They pay more than 3/4 of his pay into child support. Seems ridiculous to me. Anyone have any suggestions on any other type of aid they might be able to apply for?

Thanks for the prayers. They do have a lawyer but the case won't be settled until after she is released from all doctors' care. She is presently under 4 different types of doctors. They said it would be a year most likely before she will be released if all goes well. Until she signs a release form from all doctors, the attorney cannot submit an offer to settle. So....in the meantime.....they need the healing and finances. Thanks again; ya'll are great!

My sister was in a very bad car accident (hit at 45mph while at a stop). She has received damage to her brain affecting her memory and her ability to perform basic functions. Due to the accident she and her husband have both lost their jobs....she due to the inability to mentally function properly and him because of needing to take her to numerous doctor appointments and miss work. They are in a hurendous financial bind due to it. She needs her brain to heal and be good as new and of course pray for their finances also. Thanks so much.

I'm in a precarious position. I am fighting for unemployment and had an appeal where we all talked on the phone. It still hasn't gone through. I need for it to go through and would appreciate all praying for me. I got railroaded.

Just talked about Mrs. W tonight with my sister. How is she doing? Last time I was in the area we met at the grocery and she was gracious, loving and hugged me. I'm in the area now....I'd like an update...thanks.

Ex...didnt receive a private message...am I supposed to pick it up somewhere? You can e-mail me at dbking98@msn.com

Been a long time and I know more people have joined. Does anyone know whatever happened to Joann Herman? She was 8th Corps and worked in Word Processing at HQ along with Vicki Dahl who married John Reynolds. Have been looking for her over the past 19 years.

So very sorry to hear about Mark. He was such a great person with such a sweet heart. Met him in the early 70's when I had an apartment in the same house staff were housed in (the Uncle Harry House they called it). He lived upstairs across from Mark & Sheryl Haggard and I lived downstairs with DeeAnn Wingate and Laura Booth. We all used to have the greatest times together and I remember him fondly. Barbara is a wonderful woman also and the only child I ever met was Sarah who also had a beautiful heart. What a great loss...but to know...the victory is still ours in the end. May God bless his family tremendously.

Sorry to hear of your loss. Time does heal and take away some of the pain. Remember the good times; remember the good memories. Nothing can take that away from you. My prayers are with you.

What a lousey situation for you and that poor girl! Typical that some schools go to such an extreme one way the kids can't even breath and then your school goes the opposite where they won't look or adhere to anything...of course, the balance is ALWAYS missed. I would think that the mom could bring lawsuits against the mom and daughter for impersonating them and even entering that child's room. I hope their names and descriptions have been placed at the hospital so they cannot interfer again. Prayers are with them and with YOU and YOURS.

Jim, I'm so sorry for your loss. No words can ever cover over the hole in your heart except the Word of God and time. May your heart heal quickly and may the pain deminish with each breath that you take.

Does anyone know how Mrs. Wierwille doing? Haven't had an update in a while and just wondered how her health, etc was.

That's sad. Claudette and Nancy Hearne will never ever ever leave. Neither of those two really have anywhere to go even if they "saw the light." I lived with Nancy and knew Claudette. They will both "go down with the ship no matter what." Tis a sad thing.

You got my prayers too!!!!

Shel...what's a pt? Duh...

Bow...glad to hear your "adventure" turned out positive. When I first read that you were near Chattanoga, I thought maybe you were coming my way and was going to offer...but guess you went in the other direction! I had a U-Haul break down on me outside of Chatanooga when moving here from Ohio! Must be the Bramurda Triangle of the south! Had same thing happen. I was in the car with a one month old, hubby was in the U-Haul with a 3 year old...just got gas together, pulled out and he turned back when the U-Haul broke down going out the exit...and I didn't know it and kept going. Couple miles down the road I discovered he wasn't around! (No cell phones at that time...1988). Pulled into a hotel with the baby, got a room. Called the ONLY person I knew in Georgia...and hubby was on the other line (call waiting)! I'd had no idea where I was even going in Georgia...just supposed to follow him. Adventures can turn into experiences to remember with a smile. Glad you are all safe and ok! Really miss chatting with you too and finding out how your family is!

I miss feeling like I belonged someplace and wasn't an "odd ball." I miss feeling that I had a good connection with God...now I'm not so sure and don't want to be deceived again. I miss feeling that I was contributing spiritually because I had that connections (that really in the end apparently wasn't). I miss feeling I was doing something important spiritually when I brought someone to PFAL because they would get delivered. I miss the simplicity of the early years before the whole place turned devilish now and political and money-minded with control freaks in charge. I miss the Rock of Ages and seeing people that you only get to see once a year. I miss the whole that used to be in my heart, and then I thought was filled, to be empty again.

She is also in my prayers. Older folks have so much wisdom that has been lost over the years. I pray for her recovery and continued influence. With her age she has wisdom that is a diamond of a gem.

My 83-year old mother-in-law passed this afternoon. My daughter had especially gotten very close to her and is taking it extremely hard. This is the first death my daughter has dealt with. When my dad passed 7 years ago, my daughter would not acknowledge it nor speak of it. My son, who is younger, is also taking it hard but the devistation rests with my daughter. Please pray for her heart to be comforted and not to blame herself. She feels responsible as granny called her cell phone and she couldn't answer at the time. Granny called my house (don't know why she didn't call me at work) and left a message saying she was sick. She did then call 911 and was transported to the hospital. The ER had just finished talking with her and were going to get a ultra sound machine and she just "went" in a second. Nothing my daughter could have done could have changed it. But she feels responsible. Pray for her to realize she isn't at fault and for her heart to be healed. Thanks.

My mother-in-law passed away this afternoon. She was a spry 83-year old and out of the blue had an anurism that burst. My daughter is taking it extremely hard as this is the first death that she has dealt with. Granny was a fine artist and a heart loving saint.

Last try for Joann Herman. Lost contact with her in mid-88. We were close all through the Corps and on Staff at HQ. Even named my daughter's middle name after her when my daughter was born in 85. Last I knew she was working for a make-up company in Connecticut but have searched for years and never re-located her. Anyone know anything?? Thanks
