I'm so glad that it is Friday!!!! I'm one tired person! I've been struggling with a sore back all week long and I also can't seem to get adjusted to the time change.
How do you like little Autumn the Butterfly!!!! From what I heard from her Mom, she enjoyed going Trunk or Treat with her cousin Emma. She got to experience her first every sucker and her Mom and Dad got to reap the benefits of all of the chocolate and other candy that she received!!! (This Nana sure wishes that she could have seen her in person!)
O.K. all of my Blogging friends. I have a big prayer request. My cousin Karen Meyers who is my age is a very, very sick women. She just moved up here to Montevallo from Jacksonville FL about 2 1/2 months ago, anyway she has (RSD) www.rsds.org which is a pain disease and has been sick with this for about 8 years now. But due to the heavy medicines that she takes for this it has caused acute/chronic Pancreatitus. She has been in the hospital 8 times this year already with bouts of it and twice since she has moved here. To make a long story short, it has damaged her Pancreas and she is scheduled to have most of it removed along with some of her Duodeunum (intestine) and part of her stomach on November 24th. This is major, major surgery and obviously she is very scared. Not very many surgeons do this. She is having her surgery at UAB and the Dr who is doing it did an internship at the Mayo Clinic. When I talked to her yesterday, she asked me if I would have my pastor come to the hospital before surgery to see her as she does not have a church home here. Since they have moved here she has been so sick, she has been unable to find a church home and really feels out of touch and afraid. Karen is a christian and knows that she is in Gods hands, but to not have a church home and family is difficult for her. She misses her friends in Jacksonville and her family, but I truly feel that God has her here for a reason, so please join me in praying for her comfort and peace and for God to guide the surgeons hands.

We will pray for her, and also maybe we can help with meals if you can take them to her.
