The coconut wire here in the Pacific puts ATT to shame.
You and your mom share the Miss America looks!
I'm Micheal's friend's (Daniel) mom :=) We are joining your family here in praying and fasting for you and your family.
I wanted to share with you an experience that happened several years ago.
A woman whom I periodically work with in my real estate business asked for a priesthood blessing for her husband.
Now this was unusual as they were both Catholics.
The husband (quite heavy and in his 60s) had colon cancer and the doctors practically took all his digestive system out. His stomach was then connected to the esophagus. He was in bad bad shape. It was touch and go, I was told.
When the phone call came and they explained the situation and wanted my husband Mark to give a blessing, my heart dropped.
I know they expected a miracle from the priesthood power and I was afraid that it was such a tall tall order in this circumstance. What if it was not the Lord's will? Would we destroy their faith? Would they understand?
When I called Mark at the office about the request, I told him of my apprehension about this whole thing and asked if he should accept when we didn't even know him. Perhaps he could pass this on to someone else - the missionaries?
I'm perennially full of faith but this was such a 'losing cause".
But Mark said that he would go to Queens Hospital in Honolulu since it was their request.
Guess what?
The doctors there called him their 'miracle boy'.
His situation greatly improved and he was discharged. ( I was soooo grateful and relieved!)
This experience continues to inspire me and has deepened my faith in miracles.
The Lord knows and loves each of children more than we will ever know.
Hang in there. With all our love and prayers. Choon

Jodi's Story
Jodi Orgill Brown and Tolan Brown married in 1996 and together have 4 beautiful children, Trenden, Lindi, Casen and Daven, who make every day worth living.
Jodi was diagnosed with a brain tumor in April of 2009 after months of suffering from debilitating symptoms. Though 9 doctors declared her tumor was inoperable because of it's location on the brainstem, hope was not lost. One team of specialists at the University of Utah Hospital agreed to operate and remove the tumor. The first surgery was successful in removing as much of the tumor as was possible. However, complications from the surgery caused a debilitating and life-threatening spinal fluid leak, which resulted in 2 more brain surgeries and a 5-week hospitalization and fight for life.
Jodi is now "in recovery" from a dificult round 1, and has many complications and side effects, including partial facial paralysis, loss of hearing in her right ear, complications with her eye, depth perception, sight and headaches, but still has lots of love, help, hope, miracles and angels around her everyday!
