It's a good day!!!! *BIG SMILE*

TamTastic

For those that have followed the story of my friend Shellie, who went in about a month ago to have her baby and got the embolism in her heart and almost died. (wasn't expected to live through the night). Well, God definitely works in mysterious ways! Shellie has fought back! These are updates from her brother and father on the facebook page. They were left a couple of days ago.


From her brother ROB:
She is still in ICU, but not for long. The doctor that is overall in charge of her care said she would be surprised if Shellie was in the ICU when she got back from a weeks vacation. There is a good possibility that she won't be in the hospital period. She is doing great and I can't wait to post those blackmail pictures.


And from her father Gino:
She is unbelievable in the progress she has made in the past 72 hours. She is now eating table food,has started physical therapy ("WALKED ON A WALKER SEVERAL TIMES). Her progression is about thirty days ahead of a typical patient having equivalent medical problems.... Most important she has not lost her sense of humor.


And this was left late last night from her father:
Shellie,has been moved out of ICU and is stable."" She has been moved to the sixth floor of the hospital.Obviously,having a pedicure and her nails manicured is the key to advancing her health!

(Her doc brought in someone to give her a mani/pedi yesterday!!!)

Anyway, with all the crap going on in the world today and the economy the way it is and how depressed everyone is..........I thought this might be a bit of good news to possibly bring a smile to your face. It is TRULY a miracle!

Tami-- thanks for letting us know this, and for the reminder of God's presence and provisions. I'm a Christian and we're struggling SO much financially these days, with not a whole lot of hope of things getting better-- we lost one house already, and are technically renting this one from my mother-in-law who "bought" it for us, yet we pay the mortgage. I'm on the deed in case she dies, so the house won't get tied up with her estate. We were able to pay the mortgage this month, but no bills have gotten paid. We're in danger of water, electricity-- heck, everything being shut off.

Anyway-- my point is, I grow so weary and struggle so much with my faith through this. I KNOW that God is here and cares and will meet our needs for I believe in scripture. But, I get so tired of it all and begin to feel so sorry for myself and fear that God has forgotten us-- blah, blah, blah.

This lovely reminder of A) those less fortunate than me ( I haven't been on my deathbed for a month-- ) and of His presence, provisions and mercy is much needed.

Thanks--

Wow Tam you must have been reading my mind. Ive been on a few times this week looking for an update. Today i came home from church and here it was. I am so glad Shellie is doing so much better. She is very blessed to have so many people who love and care about her. She is equally as blessed to have a friend like you. Thanks so much for the update.
