Joanne what a gift to call you and your family "friend"! And what a priviledge to pray for you with your mom in these days and see God's amazing goodness already.

Joanne,
I want to let you know that my mom went from being nearly completely paralyzed by her massive stroke to getting her driver's license back almost 4 years later.

Hang in there. Work hard at everything you need to do. Keep "thinking" your left side to do things. Only God knows what He'll return to you but work like you can get it all back!!

We continue to pray for you!

[Judy Gunnink]

Toben , Joann and girls,
I don't know if you remember me, because I was teaching in the middle school when the girls were at HR. I'm now in Ecuador for a year, and will be back next year and can't wait to have Audrey for Science.
Anyway, I just want you know what an inspiration you are to me--i've had a tough couple of years since my husband died from cancer and now being away from home has been harder than I ever imagined. But reading your posts, helps put things in perspective for me. Your faith and ability to see the good in every day is amazing. Toben, I know what it's like to see your spouse in pain, there's is nothing worse--so my prayers are with you. Thank you for being faithful in writing, even when you don't feel like it . I know when I see you guys next fall at HR; Joann will be walking and running.
Grace, peace and hope,
Judy Gunnink

[Susan Moher]

Daily walking with you in prayer, Joanne, and so encouraged by how far you have come in the past few weeks! 2 Sam. 7:18 - "Who am I, O Sovereign Lord, and what is my family that you have brought me 'this far'?" ---and thinking that you'll soon be 'sitting back on your heels' with awe and thanksgiving praising Him for your 'this far' experience!
You still have that Joanne 'spunk' and your faith and the race is on! C=

[Kaye]

Continue to pray for your recovery and for your entire family. It is such a blessing reading what you have written. So many answered prayers! Be encouraged and know how much you are loved. HE is with you step by step.
Blessings today and always,
Kaye

Amen, sister! Just like in "The Last Battle" when they reach Aslan's land and they are all running farther and farther in, finding there is no limit to their strength, their endurance, their speed, or to the Land itself.

Someday you and I will be running together, Joanne, when we are Home. Until then, you'll just have to run without me! ; )

love,

lisa

[Sarah]

You go girl!

[Jennifer]

Joanne,
Every morning, during my quiet time, I continue to pray Psalm 46 over you. I have little note cards in which I have written out prayers and praises about your situation. I marvel over the progress you have made in such a short time. Thank you for teaching me about how important it is to have quiet time each morning and how when God meets with us....he hears our prayers.

YOU will be walking and running soon...oh yes YOU will.

Much love
Jennifer

[Megan]

[Bev Brandon]

Absolutely, Joanne. You will walk. You will run.

Isaiah 40:27-41 Your way is not hidden from your LORD.

Do you know today? Have you heard?? Your LORD from the ends of the earth will not grow tired or weary even though you might be. HE has you covered.

HE gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
Those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.

YOU will soar on wings like eagles;
YOU will run and not grow weary,
YOU will walk and not be faint.
Some days we soar,
some days we run,
some days we walk.
All days we wait.

Love you so much sweet girl.
Praying for you, Bev

[Auntie Mip]

Of this I have no doubt.

Tonight at mass, 17 of our young adults were confirmed. Among them my precious nephew Peter. He chose Luke as his confirmed name as he told me that the Gospel According to Luke is his favorite. Tonights Gospel came from Matthew. I couldn't help but think of you Joanne. It is the passage that tells us to not concern ourselves with worldly things. Not the clothes we wear, or our possessions. Not our physical attributes, our home, or jobs, or anything material as these are the worries of pagans. Exactly four times we are told, "Do not worry" because when we have faith we will be taken care of. Do not fear Joanne, do not worry for God promises that if we only believe, with Him all things are possible. Even things so seemingly simply as walking and running and yes, going home.

Do not worry Joanne, do not worry!

[Carmen]

Yes you will indeed!! Praying daily for the realisation of that dream, and for strength and courage along the way. Way to go, Joanne! Keep on holding on to Jesus!

[Eveline from the Netherlands!]

yes you will god bless you and It's so nice to see you back again.

[Penbleth]

Yes, you are. You have already taken great steps towards that goal. Continued prayers for your recovery.

[marije]

YES, you are! :)

[Sarah R.]

and watch tv with your family, and eat take out food, and take a bath, and read a favorite book, and cook new recipes, and go to church, and play board games, and carpool, and sit around in pjs on a rainy day, and go to the mall, and clean your floors, and pray alone, and eat girl scout cookies, and watch old Christmas movies, and eat pizza, and splurge on desserts, and sing Happy Birthday, and go to Walmart, go for coffee, and eat breakfast for dinner, and do 50 situps, and hold hands with your husband, and braid your girls' hair, and............

[Michelle from Australia]

Joanne

I have no doubt you'll walk, run and do SO much more.

With prayers for your continued healing from our little family on the other side of the planet.
