Tuesday Afternoon

Well its Tuesday and we have been here one week and our current vacation resort is getting a little old. Even thought Baltimore has been good to us Tracey asked that next time we plan a trip it has to have a few more five star features. She is starting to get back to her old self again.

On a productive note we made a lot of progress today. The epidural was removed and she will be treated with oral meds now. That leaves us with only two more wires to get removed and then were "wireless". Her 1:30 walk was a huge success as well. Our PT came by and we made the journey down the hall to a stairwell with glass windows. The PT allowed us to soak up some vitamin D for a few and then we tackled a small fight of stairs. Wow....she did great!!!

  1. I'm sure it's no Disney World, but I know that you are going to be better than ever (if that is possible)and you will have plenty of opportunities to visit the Majic Kingdom. You are probably the strongest person I know. Hang in there, you are on your way.

  7. Tracey and Todd, I have been following your blog and praying for you both all week. Psalm 4:8 says "I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety." I pray that the peace that only God can give will carry you through this. Tracey, I'm praying for your complete healing! Love, Wendy (Bailey) Boggess

  8. I am praying for you and I have been reading how you are reading the scriptures. I saw this and thought of you guys.
    Psalm 103:1-3 BLESS (AFFECTIONATELY, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul; and all that is [deepest] within me, bless His holy name! Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul, and forget not [one of] all His benefits—Who forgives [every one of] all your iniquities, Who heals [each one of] all your diseases.

    Psalm 118:17 I shall not die but live, and shall declare the works and recount the illustrious acts of the
    Lord.

    Psalm 147:3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds [curing their pains and their sorrows].

    Proverbs 4:20-22 My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to my sayings. Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart. For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.

    Exodus 23:25You shall serve the Lord your God; He shall bless your bread and water, and will take sickness from your midst
    .
    Proverbs 3:7-8 Be not wise in your own eyes; reverently fear and worship the Lord and turn [entirely] away from evil. It shall be health to your nerves and sinews, and marrow and moistening to
    your bones.

    Jeremiah 17:14Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for You are my praise.

    Matthew 9:20-22 And behold, a woman who had suffered from a flow of blood for twelve years came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His garment; for she kept saying to herself, If I can touch His garment, I shall be restored to health. Jesus turned around and, seeing her, He said, Take courage, daughter! Your faith has made you well. And at once the woman was restored to health.

    3 John 1:2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and [that your body] may keep well, even as [I know] your soul keeps well and prospers.

    Mark 16:17-18And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe: in My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages; they will pick up serpents; and [even] if they
    drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well.

    Matthew 4:23-24 And He went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every weakness and infirmity among the people. So the report of Him spread throughout all Syria, and they brought Him
    all who were sick, those afflicted with various diseases and torments, those under the power of demons, and epileptics, and paralyzed people, and He healed them.

    Matthew 8:16-17 When evening came, they brought to Him many who were under the power of demons, and He drove out the spirits with a word and restored to health all who were sick. And thus He
    fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, He Himself took [in order to carry away] our weaknesses and infirmities and bore away our diseases
    .
    James 5:14-15Is anyone among you sick? He should call in the church elders (the spiritual guides). And they should pray over him, anointing him with oil in the Lord’s name. And the prayer [that
    is] of faith will save him who is sick, and the Lord will restore him; and if he has committed
    sins, he will be forgiven.Confession for physical healing: “I know that it’s God’s will for me to be healthy and whole. I praise the Lord and thank Him for healing all of my diseases as I put my faith and trust in
    Him.”

  12. Tracey, Todd & Family, we continue in our prayers, love & thoughts. Tracey, I have so much compassion, admiration and respect for the strength you have always displayed with that beautiful smile on your face. You encourage me to count my blessing more often, be more thankful and know I am blessed. Regardless of monetary situations, our health and family have no price tag. Cancer has no mercy but God does. I pray His mercy on you and your family. I pray you are comfortable, healed and home soon! Love from Cleveland and beyond!
