Bless your hearts. We're certainly praying for you. I wanted to encourage you to think about the things that are true and on who Jesus is to you during this time. I know I often imagine the worst -- telling myself it's "'wise to be mentally prepared in case..." But I'm finding that gives the evil one a foothold to create fear and distrust. The truth is that the Father knows every hair on your head and every blood vessel in your body. Think about Him walking with your during the day and watching over you as you sleep. He knows your coming and your going. We're praying for you to know His care for you in a tangible way. Becca (and Steve) Guys, we just got caught up on all that you’ve been dealing with.

That is one thing that we can not explain through science, or anything else! He gives us a peace beyond our own understanding. We will continue to pray for you guys, during this time, and all of the doctors! Martha Marie & Eddie,

I found your website, trying to locate Martha Marie's sister. She and I were close friends during school and we lost contact back in 1997 and I haven't spoken or seen her since. When I first found your website, I saw the link to MM's website and the numerous blogs about your precious daughter. It was so nice to read and catch up on how MM's family was doing and how much the Lord has truly blessed. I delayed in posting anything, as I wasn't sure what to say. However, I now feel the Lord had our paths cross at this time one more time for a reason. MM - I had a stroke at the age of 29 back in 2003 due to a blood clot that formed in my right vertebral artery at the base of my neck and the left vertebral artery was 40% blocked. My dr at that time told me, my husband and parents, it would be short of a miracle if that right artery opened up and didn't need a stent via surgery. Long story short, I received that miracle within 4 months and shocked the neurosurgeon who said he had not seen that kind of healing in the 20 years he had practiced medicine. Please stay strong and lean on Him, even though your burden right now is heavy. The Lord does answer prayer and would love to share more of my story, as even though your situation is a little different - you have an aneursym, mine was a clot. I know first hand that He is still in the healing business and pray that I can send some encouragement your way. When you are down and out, think about all the good things the Lord has blessed you with and has already done for you, it will make you smile. I have pretty much fully recovered and give God all the glory for what He has done in my life. I will continue to pray for you and your family and check back often for updates. I pray for His will be done either in healing or giving you the direction to a doctor who the Lord will use to heal your condition. Please feel free to email me if you'd like to chat and tell Melissa Hello for me, I'd love to hear from her too.

I know her sister LaDonna and we have a ten year old with downs syndrome. that is the short story of how we now know about you. I've got your appointment in my Palm and the alarm is set to go off 15 minutes before the appointment. Prayer got us through open heart surgery on my daughter Faith, it got LeAnn and Zac through surgery and I feel that it will now do the same for you. God's blessings on you and your family from Florida. Jim LeAnn Snider asked me to pray for you, so that is what I did.
