November 12, 2007

Dear Friends and Family,

Shannon's fever has continued and a cat-scan was ordered today. This evening she began to experience memory loss. As I'm writing this email they're taking her down for a brain cat-scan and then an mri.
We are quite concerned, but are trying to remain at peace and to keep the household as normal as possible. Greg is with Shannon today through Tuesday night, then we'll trade places.
There are times when it's difficult to see the blessings amidst the storm. Please pray that Shannon is returned to health - mind, body, and soul, and our faith remain even if it's little. Mt 8:26 "You of little faith, why are you so afraid?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm.

God Bless,
Bonnie

Dear Bonnie and family

Although I don't think we have ever met, I also go to St. Johns Church. My daughter is an altar server so I get the updates on Shannon through that ministry. Wanted you to know that not only do people you know think and pray for you but so do people who do not. God bless each of you to give you comfort and strength. You are an inspiration to many with your incredible faith.
Very Sincerely,
Eileen Gawitt (fellow parishoner)
