Hello to All,
Just wanted to give everyone a quick update on Jessica.
We arrived back to Hospital San Jose this past Friday-June 3rd.
After going thru admittance, she was brought up to the 8th floor and back in room 845 - the same room she was in the last time. I must admit that it was a little surreal to be back here once again and in the same room.
She was taken off of coumadin and put on IV heparin. We will wait until her blood levels are at the correct number in order for her to have the surgery for removal of the granuloma. She is also on IV antibiotics and IV ketamine.
For now we are in a holding pattern until the proper time for surgery.
We place all our trust first in God, then Dr. Cantu, and all the doctors and nurses here at Hospital San Jose.
Please keep Jessica in your prayers. I will keep everyone updated as to when the surgery will be.
In God's love, always,
Sarah Gina

Paulina, the 12 year old daughter of a dear family we have met while here in Monterrey visited us last night. As she was leaving she said to Jessica:
"DO YOUR BEST AND GIVE GOD THE REST!!!".
What wonderful words from such a young girl!

I bet that felt strange to be back in your old room but hopefully it will not be for long.

Still praying, praying, praying ...
ReplyDeleteStrength will rise as we wait upon the Lord.
ReplyDeleteGod never changes. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." Hebrews 13:8 (NIV)
"He is the everlasting God. "Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away." Matthew 24:35 (NIV)
"Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:28-31 (KJV)
These are just words of encouragement to hopefully help you through your day. There are times when it seems like God is not there. However, take heart, God is always with you. He may be silent, but he is there.
"The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” Deuteronomy 31:8 (NIV)
When the storms of life come, we tend to wonder where God is and ask why He is not answering our prayers? Perhaps He is, just possible not the wait we expect nor in the time frame we want.
He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:10 (NIV)
"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." Romans 12:12 (NIV)
God instructs us to be patient, remain hopeful and keep praying. Our time is not His time
"But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day." 2 Peter 3:8 (NIV)
He knows you better than you know yourself. He knows what you need and the desires of your heart. Rest assured that God loves you and He has your best interest at heart. Be patient. Wait on the Lord, the everlasting God. Be at peace. Let your strength renew.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
A little humor...

A father is anticipating the birth of his daughter writes:
Get to meet my little Alexis Noelle tonight. I can't wait to lay my eyes on her.
I read this to my parents, and my dad said "how do you spell "Alexis" with no "L"?"
Lol

Dear Jessica & Sara Gina,
ReplyDeleteYou continue to leave us speechless and in utter awe of your amazing strength! The way you both face these difficult challenges with such Grace is so inspirational. May God continue to bless you and keep you strong. We ask His mercy now in helping Jessica to endure this surgery without any complications or infections and that she have a full and speedy recovery.
We know that Dr. Cantu and his team are watching out for Jessica as if she were their own. We will pray that this is the last big hurdle Jessica must face and that very soon we will receive happy news from Monterrey!
Love You 2,
Rosemary and John
