Hello dear friends! I know it has been so long since I posted anything, but I did want to share this very special card with you all.
It is going to the family of the man who donated his lungs. I received this gift of life on May 9! There have been a few small bumps in the road, but God is so GOOD!!! He truly has blessed me and brought me thru everything! I am so thankful for my dear hubby who stayed with me every step of the way! Also, a big THANK YOU for all your prayers and for checking up on me!
I wrote a three page letter thanking the family and will include it with the card.
Now I need to up-date my photo, because I don't need oxygen anymore!!! YAY!!!

From another one of your fans here in SCS land, what inward joy (the kind that does bring on tears)I have for you and this awesome miracle from God. Another great thing to praise God for this day of worship. Continuing prayers during your recovery time. This is a beautiful card for someone's beautiful gift to one of God's beautiful daughters.
