Sending a post for you !!! :P

I am sooo glad for the "already miracles"!!  Vonda, we are praying for you and David as well.  For those of you who don't know, the last verse of the Bible that Mommy was able to quote was "With God All Things Are Possible."  That may have been just for "such a time as this"  Esther 4:14.  Would love to hear a shout out from those of you who are being silent...just to let us know how you are!!

I can't post from the blog but I can from my email.

Trish, that is great news and we will be praying,I have a appointment with David's Dr. Tuesday , will let you all know what he says when I find out.It is about his kidneys.

update on danny

Hey all,
We went to UVA on Thursday and the last 2 days have been a whirlwind.  We got there at 10am and saw 4 doctors, only stopped long enough to get a diet coke and catch our breath.  We didn't get out of there til  4pm.  They all agree he should have a radical chest resection which is very involved.  It will require the cardiothorasic surgeon as well as the plastic surgeon.  They will be removing his chest muscle and taking possible the collar bone and some ribs, then move the muscle from his back to his chest and take a skin graft from his thigh to replace over his chest.  They expect it to take about 6-7 hours.  The Mayo clinic can't see us until the 26th of May and that just seems to long to wait.  The Cleveland Clinic is going to see us on Tuesday and if they are in agreement with UVA, we will go to UVA on Wednesday and have surgery on Thursday.  We got an awful lot of information in the last couple days, but we are still expecting miracles.  I see no reason why when they open him up and start testing margins that they find no cancer cells!  That is our prayer right now and we are believing, so I am asking you guys to help us with that prayer.  As Mommy would say "all things are possible with Jesus:)" 
Will keep you updated as we know more.   Best thing about going to the Cleveland Clinic is we get to visit with The Hocevars;)  
Love to all,
Trish and Danny

Hey Everybody! I was wondering if anybody was posting, the blog was unusually silent for a bit!

If I could get everyone just to post a HI  for me so I can see whats going on with the posting.  Rita isn't able to post and some posts are missing.  Thanks

Trying this out for Trish

Not sure what happened but there are a few posts missing. Is anyone having trouble posting?

Mom, If you had a facebook, you could add the "STARS" of COAL as your friends!

Senior Center

It was entertainment night at the Senior Citizens Center .

 Claude the hypnotist explained: "I'm here to put you into a trance;

I intend to hypnotize each and every member of the audience."

The excitement was almost electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat.

"I want each of you to keep your eyes on this antique watch. It's a very special watch.

It's been in my family for six generations."

 He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting,

"Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch..."

 The crowd became mesmerized as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface.

A hundred pairs of eyes followed the swaying watch until, suddenly,

the chain broke; it slipped from the hypnotist's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces.

 "CRAP!" said the hypnotist.

 It took three days to clean up the Senior Citizens Center .

Claude was never invited again.

Only One
Most of all the other beautiful things in life come by twos and threes, by dozens and hundreds. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers and sisters, aunts and cousins, but only one Mother in the whole world . . .

I trust everyone had a good Mother's day. I know, it's bittersweet. When I look around in our family, I see a lot of great Moms. So let's not beat ourselves up OK. We must have done something right! Momma was the best example wasn't she? She truly loved her kids and grandkids and she was not ashamed to show them. I regret now that I didn't pay more attention to those little things she did. She always put the other first and she always did things wholeheartedly. I fall so short when I step up beside her. I miss her today! Blessing to all of you

Danny, Trish, Family , We have been praying for you ever since we heard of the problem and we will continue until the Lord takes care of it. We will also let our friends know so they can lift the family up in prayer also. We love you guys.

Love and Prayers

My Mother

My mother is a strong, courageous woman. She has taught me to always be a person who puts other first. She taught me that Jesus loves me and thing most important things in life aren't things. Mom you have put so many happy memories in my heart and filled it with life's important lessons. You have always led by example with determination to get jobs done. I hope to one day be half the wife and mother that you are every day. You are your mother's daughter and I am sure heaven sees her smile down upon you. Thank you for taking such awesome care of dad and my children. May every day be Mother's Day for you.
