         Brad's health is quickly deteriorating. He sleeps most
of the time, unable to do much of anything.
       His organs have begun to shut down according to the
hospice nurse. He is ready to go home.

          We have been unable to sing since Memorial Day         
                weekend.  Days have been long and hard. Yet,         
           everyday we have laughed together over some joy       
         God has provided, despite our heart-ache.

                         Wayde graduated high-school and is praying   
                                           for God's guidance regarding            
                                     which on-line college to enroll for          
                       seminary.

Skylar turned  10 and had a wonderful birthday.

Their hearts are hurting.
It's hard to lose the best dad in the world.

I cry so much now. I've done all I know to do. Natural
remedies, conventional health methods, prayer without
ceasing. In the end God is the giver and the keeper of life.
And He already has our days numbered.

By all appearances, Brad will be going to heaven soon. How
wonderful it will be for him. No more suffering.

Should God lead you to help us in some way, be sure to
obey. I do not know what to ask for.
I am tired, and heart broken, and my mind is not clear.

According to Colossians,
Set your affections on things above!
                                                 In the end it's all that matters.
