Ty,
Wow! You are something else! I am just so glad that I can say I am a member of your family! I have checked out this site several times, but have never posted a note to you...but really want to right now. I have found so much inspiration in you over the past week...you and your parents. I have been struggling with such 'little problems' compared to yours. I gain great strength in the way you just continue to reach out to others for Christ, regardless of your circumstances. God is really using you! I can see you have the same attitude as a great man named Horatio G. Spafford. He lived in the 1800's. He is the man who wrote the wonderful hymn, "It Is Well With My Soul". The first verse says it all, "When peace like a river, attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows roll; whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say, 'It is well, it is well with my soul'". No matter if I experience peace, or the world is falling apart around me, I know He loves me, and that is all that matters.
Thank you for your courage. Thank you for your fight. Thank you for using the gifts and talents God has blessed you with, because you are making a huge difference for Him!
I LOVE YOU, MAN!
Uncle Doug
