Emotional Roller Coaster

This has been an up and down week where the necessary activity of staying on top of things refuses to relent despite everything else that tries to occupy the mind. When I finally do find a spare moment or two to relax, my mind gets overrun with events of the past few days.

First a report on the twins. On Sunday night the family was discouraged because of a doctor's report. A scan indicated that due to complications of the pregnancy, there was bleeding on the brain of one of the babies. It was a very somber report and it was made clear that it might be time for the parents to make some tough choices.

Then, less than 24 hours later, the doctor was excited to report that he must have made a mistake on reading the test and that there was no evidence of any bleeding. We are very thankful for these latest developments but there is a long way to go.

I've also been very saddened by the deaths of a friend's two sons in a car accident. Their funeral is tomorrow.

I hope that anyone reading this can take a moment in their schedule to say a prayer for both of these families. God can meet all needs.
