Friday's update

Thanks to everyone for their prayers! They're appreciated more than you could know! Prayin' Cary comes home soon. He's got some recovery from the surgery to do. Doc had to open him up more than he initially thought. But it's wonderful to see a doctor in action go above and beyond for a patient! Thank your healthcare provider because your gratitude and relationship with them could go a long way to benefit down the road.

Thank you dr Howard! I cried a lot last night cause nurse was mean and I knew she wouldn't take care of Cary. He was hurting she said no orders for pain medicine. She kicked me out at 6 then surgeon went to see Cary about 6:30 and he told the nurses all about Cary history and he let them have it for lying about orders which he wrote before surgery Carys been treated like super star! I'm SO relieved!!! He's not supposed to have cell phone in there but dr gave him his phone so he could call him if anymore trouble. :) what an answer to prayers for relief. Thank you God for not giving us more than we could handle!

Amanda

My parents and I are visiting this weekend in efforts to help free up some folks and give the boys some love and attention. There have been challenges and tougher days may be ahead but instead of focusing on what may or may not happen, we choose to live in today. To celebrate each moment in life and not take for granted the time we've been afforded.

MNy of you have asked how you can help and at times we've not known how to respond but your prayers and words of wncouragement continue to lift us up to keep fighting the good fight! Your prayers continue to move us. This means more than you could know.

Amanda and Cary's journey has been challenged with Cary's illness but if you know Cary: you know he's not going down without a fight. Cary may have married into our family but he is most certainly a part of ours. What affects Cary affects my sister and theirs boys and certainly affects us. These have been challenging times but we're grateful for the lessons we are learning and for the opportunity to be better people not just to each other but to those who God may see fit to intwrsect with our lives. We pray that we love deeper, give grace more often as we find our footing down this road.

we dont always have the right words to express but we pray God would bless you an your families for all you have done. May we keep the faith together as we face what is to come trusting that the Lord will not give us more than we can handle. His Grace is indeed more than sufficient for us.

Blessings,
The Rasberry/Leyva Family
