Greetings to everyone,
It is post operative day 9, another day that the Lord allowed Diane and I to be together! In the morning Diane looked out the window and saw a beautiful pink streaked sky that we enjoyed together. Diane had a regular breakfast today, unfortunately she could not hold it down so the doctors returned her to a liquid diet. There are two different anti nausea medications that she has been taking, Zofran and Phenergan. The Zofran cause's Diane to feel very hot, flush and disorientated. We had told the nursing staff she did not want the Zofran any more, but she received a dose this morning. Diane can tell you it was not a fun experience. We are both so thankful for he support we have been receiving from all of you. I read all the comments and email's that everyone sends, she really enjoys them all! Diane is hoping to see Sean, Kyle, and Mori this weekend. With the snow falling not sure if the visit will happen or not. I thank the Lord for all he is teaching Diane and I as we walk through this circumstance together. If you asked me 10 days ago I would have told you I was in the valley. Today however I feel on the mountain top. I believe wee can go through difficult circumstances and remain on the mountain top as long as we are keeping our eye's on God. If we take our eye's off God, that is when we end up in the valley. It is how our relationship with Jesus is that determines if we are on the mountain top or in the valley. I just returned to writing after tucking Diane in bed. We are both excited and happy to report, she passed her first gas since the operation! Diane received a card today reminding us that God is an on time God, and we both said yes he is!
Good night and God bless you all.

God willing we will all see you one day real soon back in the fold of our NFC family. Take care of yourself and each other Jeff and Diane. Love, Nita and Randy Garland
Hi Jeff and Diane, It is hard to believe it has been 10 days since the surgery. We are sure it feels like 10 days for you. Thank God he is continuing to keep you both lifted up. We will continue praying for Diane and you and especially to be able to eat and keep it down. Lots of Love, Don and Cookie
Hey Guys,
I know from experience that vomiting is not fun.
But, that’s just your body saying it’s not ready for food.
Just keep being as upbeat & positive as you are & before you know it… the food will stay down.
I wonder if, just plain Pepto Bismol would do the trick ???
(Just a thought) Ask your doctor before trying it !!
I sure hope the boys get to come down. It will be the best medicine for all of you !!
Take care of your self’s, get some rest.
Tell Kathy we’re still praying for her recovery as well !!
As far as passing gas…
You go girl !!!
Better out then in !!!
Love you guys tons !!!
Dave & Cheryl
We look forward to reading your blog posting every day!
Oh, Diane, I am soooo sorry that you had to throw up. I know that HURT. We're praying
that your body adjusts to real food quickly.
I hope the boys get to see
you soon. I know it's hard for every one to be apart - but at least they're getting good news.
Take care and let the Lord do His
work in you. We are praising Him for how He's helping you both.
Rest in Him. He's proving Himself
trustworthy, isn't He?!
