Baby

 

LaRae has been asking for a kitten since Bandit died. She said " Bandit is in Heaven with Jesus so I need a baby kitten". Quintin response was not now. As you can see LaRae is holding a kitten. Quintin took her to the shop with him to fix his truck and this kitten sat on her lap for 5 hours. So he brought the kitten home with him. The day before that he told me not to get her a kitten. He said "it was her birthday gift." I say he caved. You decide for yourself. LaRae named her Baby.

 

Baby doesn't like Nike yet.

We said goodbye to Bandit

Bandit will be missed. Our cat of 14 year died on Nov 12, 2012.

McKayla at girls camp for the day

I took up McKayla and her friend to girls camp on Wed. for the day. They spent the day with the 3rd year girls. The older girls were so nice to the McKayla and her friend.  We had a great time too. I am not sure who had the better time me or the girls. It was such a great experience for them.

Last update before surgery J-Pouch

Monday I went to Temple Unvi. Hospital to get all the information and pre-admission testing done before surgery. My friend Pat took me since I can't drive that far anymore. We where their from 10:39 am until 6:00 pm. It was a long day. I finally got home at 7:40 pm.

This what is going to happen in this order:

Thursday March 17, I have to go back down for a flex segmiodoscopy so Dr. Rombeau can see where and how bad the J-Pouch is now bleeding.

Thursday March 24, Quintin and I go down so I can be admitted in to the hospital. They need to put a central accesses line in. Because of the high risk of me needing blood during surgery. This will give them a way of getting blood  and fluids in me quickly. The thing that stinks is they probably won't knock me out to do it just numb the site. It might hurt just a tad. I also need all kinds of surgical preps too.

Friday March 25, Sometime in the morning I will go to the OR awake. So I can say hi! to my surgery and anesthesiologist. Then they will put in an arterial line in my wrist to monitor my blood pressure. The surgery could be up to 7 hours depending on what they find. Then after surgery I will be moved to ICU for at least a day. We are not sure what to except from that point forward.

I have a week to go. I can't wait to put this is all behind me. This is my last blog entry until I am well enough to type. Wish me luck. Thank you all for reading. This is last chapter for now.

My testimony of Jesus Christ

This might be weird to some people. This is something I feel that I have to do. I usual do this at church but since I will not have the opportunity do this before my surgery. I had this nagging feeling I needed to do this this way. So here it goes.

I have been a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints for 12 years now and it has taken me 9 years to really know and love my Heaven Father the way I do today. Maybe it took almost dieing two or three times before I got the hint he is the way and the only way. I am not sure but, I think I am finally on the right path. I do stumble from time to time. What I can tell you is this. I came to a point where he is the only way that I want to live. He guides me with every decision I make. It's hard sometimes, but it also very comforting too. When I feel the walls closing in on me I know he is there for me and he will help me threw it as long as I ask and even if I don't ask however, it works a lot better if you ask.

The lesson I learn is that you have to give Heaven Father your heart 100% not 99.9% it has to be all. It's like a weight is lifted off your shoulders if you really do it with all your heart. It is unbelievable what happens after you do this. It still today brings tears to my eyes. He started to answers my prayers that I thought he didn't hear. I started to feel his love like I have never felt before. You just have to completely trust in the Savior and don't look back. This doesn't mean that you won't have trials in your life. Trust me you will, they might be big and might feel like he's not there however, he is, you just have to trust in your faith. I still have trials and lots of them. It's just a matter of how you handle them now and how well you endure them. Especial now that you know how powerful his love is. You can make it threw anything if truly believe this. I have and believe this with all my heart.


I am really not sure if I am expressing myself very well. What I can say is this. I can remember that day this happen to me. I felt incredible inside full of sunshine, could stop smiling, wanted dance until I dropped and sing  praises. It was an overwhelming feeling that ever time I think of it now or talk about it still gives that same feeling.


I know without a doubt miracles happen today I am living proof of that. I would not be here today if it wasn't for my Heaven Father.  My husband and kids would of said goodbye to me in 2008. Here I am bearing my testimony for all to read.  I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ Amen.

Sharon, Quintin, Q, Adrian and McKayla in July of 2006. Before I
started to have more medical complications after a routine ankle surgery.
It was two in half years later that I found my testimony in
my Heaven Father and in his son Jesus Christ.
 This open up a whole new world for me.
