Prayers needed for Erik

Please pray for our friend Erik Troy. The link to his Caringbridge and story is on the right hand side of the blog. He had surgery last Thursday at Duke University to remove a brain tumor. He and his wife are really struggling right now with his recovery. Please send up some prayers that things start going in the right direction, and that Erik and Diane are able to come home to their son Ryan soon!

Josh is 5!

Josh had a great birthday weekend. We went to a birthday party for Kayla, our new neighbor, on Saturday (Josh's birthday). Josh really enjoyed bowling! Sunday we spent the afternoon with Josh and 14 or 15 of his closest friends at Pump it Up. Please note the adorable Scooby Doo cake... Jeff made it! What an amazing guy!

We are thankful for Josh's health, and that all his friends were able to come. Hope you enjoy the pictures! (Oh, and I am sneaking one in from the Spooktacular!)

Prayer Request - Erik

Jeff's boss Erik was diagnosed as having a stage 2 glioma about a month ago. He and his wife Diane will be travelling to Duke to pursue the best medical care for Erik. He is scheduled to have surgery October 16th. Please pray for Erik, Diane, their son Ryan, and their extended families. Please pray for the doctors wisdom and steady hand throughout Erik's surgery, and any future treatments. Jeff looks forward to Erik coming back to work ASAP, as he is a super boss.

We Will Miss You, Sarah Macy!

On Tuesday, September 30th, heaven gained a new angel. Josh's classmate from St. Joseph, Sarah Macy, passed away after a four month battle with Wilm's Tumor. There is a lot of sadness right now. Please pray for the Macy family, as they said goodbye to their little girl. We miss you already, Sarah! Fly high!
