They released us from the hospital Friday around 1:30. Kari and Malachi are still sick but heading towards the end I think! We are at clinic now and her counts are around 4,000 points lower than they were last week but they're still decent. Thank God and thank you for your prayers!
I had a long post typed out where I reflected on the past 7 months of our lives. However, it isn't good to publish a post that is produced amid about 100 emotions. So, I've decided to think on that post a while first.
I will say that this past week has been very emotional for several different reasons. God has been there to comfort and to uplift every step of the way...nevertheless, it has been an emotional roller coaster for me.
I usually don't get on here and ask for prayer for myself and I hope this doesn't sound selfish. Right now, I feel like I'm looking through a window at the month of February and dreading what's waiting inside that window. February will be a rough month for me for several different reasons and there are no words to describe how bad I wish I could skip the whole month altogether. I do have a few plans for the kids that will be fun and will hopefully help make the month go by faster.
I desire the prayers of those that have been through this journey with us from the beginning...I know it's what carries us through!
Hello Ashlee.
ReplyDeleteI think I came across your blog sometime last year from Kelly's Korner blog on one Friday when she did something about "Show us your Church". I was raised and still attend a Pentecostal Holiness church (conservative) so I have enjoyed following your journey. I have requested prayer for your family at the beginning of Kari's journey, but this post reminded me that I need to earnestly lift you up in prayer again. May God bless you and keep you during this upcoming month. Your strength and confidence in Him has been such a testimony to me.

Ashlee,
ReplyDeleteGirl, it is NEVER selfish to ask for prayer for yourself. Sometimes, we need the prayers of our brothers and sisters in Christ to help us push through.I hope God does something VERY Special for you in February. I hope he turns all of your dreadfulness into something BEAUTIFUL. I pray that he gives you beauty for ashes, strength for fear, gladness for mourning, and peace for despair. Always praying for ya'll my friend!
I love you Ashley and I'm praying for you guys! ♥

ReplyDeleteMy sister found your blog somehow and she sent the link to me. I have read through your post today and have been thinking/ praying for your family all day. Have you ever heard the song "He's Still God" by the McKameys. This song brought comfort to me during a trial (not nearly as severe) in my life and I hope it can bring comfort to you. Praying for your family in Danville, VA.
