the power of prayer+

today was the 'one minute for acacia'

where people from all over the country

-in and out of churches

took a least one minute to ask god

-to continue to protect and preserve acacia

and to continue her wonderful healing


well, it worked

she texted me that they wanna kick her out of there next week!

i can't believe it, so wonderful and so powerful


i want to personally thank everyone so much for all the love

and thank my father in heaven for all his unconditional love and protection

one minute for acacia

please don't forget

this sunday at 9am (local time)

is when we ask churches and believers everywhere

to take (at least) one minute

to thank god for all he's done for acacia

and to ask for his continued protection

and blessing of her


please see the link at the left of this page

and urge all other believers and their pastors and churches

to do the same


thank you all for all your love and compassion

and your prayers for the health and healing of acacia

god bless you all

happy to report

happy to report this morning that

her two 'procedures' went well

cleared out her lungs good

and

biopsyed a piece to check for 'rejection'

she said she's breathing much better and feelin' great

and that makes me (us) feel great too

two months

it's been two months since her double-lung transplantation

two months in that hospital

way over two months in pittsburgh, PA

away from her home and her bed and her family and friends

and school and all the things she needs

but

after two months

she has made tremendous strides

over-come one thing after another

been brave and courageous and has made others

much more considerate of their circumstances


she's an amazing kid, growing into an amazing woman

and over-coming all of this, little by little

day by day

tomorrow, she's scheduled to have yet another surgery

-a another biopsy of her new lungs

to check for any rejection

(how could those new lungs not want to be with her?)

after all these 'procedures' and after all this time

the only thing she's distressed about is that

her new iPhone can't be activated quite yet...


WHAT-A-GIRL!!!!

now to our reporter live at the scene

she and i were texting

and i told her that she is now the only real source of information

about her condition , so...


she called!!


she told me that she did dialysis today and will probably need it

even after she's released to the hotel

but that they think that eventually, her kidneys will come back strong

and that her vocal cords are getting stronger everyday

she said she's eating good and gaining weight

and getting stronger everyday


she sounded great

-ohh to hear her voice


she said it's snowing like crazy outside and she's got a great view of it

they're doing different types of physical therapy on her

and she's walking a lot now


so things are looking good

still lots of rehab and lots of time

but steady progress


and breathing with her news lungs

-all on her own



thank you jesus!

christmas comes early

HO HO HO

she's better now

they want to move back upstairs

and get her out of IUC

but there are no beds up there

so she has to spend another night there

she told me in a text that

'she's doing great'

and that's great news
