Susan: Please pass this along to the faithful Hollydale Prayer Warriors!

It was so good to see everyone and be “home” at church a few weeks ago. I couldn’t stop crying from happiness and the love I felt while with my Atlanta family.

It’s my SC family that needs prayers this week. After an ER visit, a mass was discovered in my mom’s lung (Donna). She is having a biopsy on Thursday morning (10/21). The doctor believes he will find stage 3 lung cancer. He also thinks it will be treatable with a strong fight. She is ready for that fight, but we are still waiting to know exactly what we are dealing with. He husband is currently fighting mesothelioma so that is quite a bit for one household.

And then there’s Granny (Miriam). The time has come to place Granny in a facility that can give her more help than we are able to give. I have been visiting Memory Care centers and we should be ready to move forward next week. I pray for a smooth transition for all of us!

And then there is me. I am taking the Professional Engineers Exam tomorrow (10/20). This is my second try and I don’t feel prepared as I have been preoccupied lately. The test is 8 hours and will consume my day tomorrow. Staying calm but ready for it to be over.

And Aunt Jo and Paige are going through this with us so we could all use some good thoughts.

Many thanks for the prayers and love from my Hollydale family!
