Now this is where things start getting interesting. As some of you may or may not have heard, when Shannon was in her coma in Mexico, there were several families in Monterrey, Mexico who got to know us and followed Shannon's progress. One lady, Marcela de Cardenas, asked one night if she could pray for Shannon at her bedside. Obviously, with nothing to lose, I said OK. After praying, she walked over to me and said something like..."You may think that I am crazy, but God told me while I was praying that your wife is going to have a daughter next year...and her name needs to be Mary. <br /><br /><br />I was just hoping that Shannon would wake up and be out of pain. Having a child in 2008 (which was next year while Shannon was in the coma in April/May 2007) seemed all but impossible. Shannon's hormones had been wiped out entirely by the RSD, medications and weight loss (as evidenced by numerous blood tests prior to the coma). So I thought it was sweet, but it seemed exceedingly unlikely. I told many friends and family about Marcela’s comments and really did not talk much about it again. This is until Shannon tested pregnant in December. We had just moved into a new home about a week before we knew she was pregnant and the house had a bright pink baby room by the master bedroom. We intended to paint it another color in late December, as neither one of us were wild about a bright pink room. When we found out a week later that Shannon was pregnant, we decided to wait to paint the room and see if we were having a girl. We called Marcela in Mexico to tell her that Shannon was pregnant, and she said "I know". It was getting pretty weird now. <br /><br /><br />With God, all things are possible!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3107658204718797774.post-85952958624397222972010-03-04T13:34:46.490-05:002010-03-04T13:34:46.490-05:00Exodus 15:11

I had a leak in my kitchen last week, which led to the discovery of mildew under my cabinets. The insurance company contractors have been here for the past three days taking out my floor, cabinets, and appliances looking for mold. Unlike in the past, when I would have been undone by the whole thing, I have found myself more or less being able to deal with it pretty well. You have taught me what is really important, and that I can make it through challenging times and see them through to the end. Your unshakeable faith throughout your trials has brought me to a different place in my thinking, and for that I am so grateful. I miss you and keep you in my prayers always. Love you!
