3 months.
230+ donations.
Countless prayers.
We most definitely have our answer – this is what we should be doing.
I’m humbled by all of those who have donated and sent their encouragement. I can’t even begin to express my gratitude. I can’t even begin to express how good it feels to know that so many of my friends and family and a large number of perfect strangers want to see me get well.
I prayed for years for God to heal me. When we found out about this opportunity, we prayed that God would bring us the money and open the door if it was the right thing to do. There is no doubt in my mind that this was His answer. God will be holding me close in His hands until I can walk again. It is a truly awesome feeling.
As I’ve said to many of you in the thank you notes I’ve written (if you haven’t received yours yet, it’s on the way, sorry), I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. But to go through this process has been a precious gift. I’ve received notes and emails that are so touching, they have made me cry. I’ve received checks in the mail from people who have never met me. I’ve received donations from people I haven’t spoken to in 20 years. There are some who have known me since birth, there are high school friends, ex-boyfriends, long lost college friends, friends of friends, and super-extended family members. You all hold a special place in my heart. I am forever grateful.
We leave on June 27. Watch what happens…
