Many prayers to all your friends and family. And GOOD for you for being positive...it&#39;s not an easy thing to do, you have to be very strong, and work hard at it. It is much easier to be negative ;)Michelle Ballardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06467208479215309637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3137344675654274522.post-55566662794449102432012-01-23T15:14:44.121-05:002012-01-23T15:14:44.121-05:00oh Lauren, I&#39;m praying...Rebecca @ The Reluctant Housewifehttp://www.thereluctanthw.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3137344675654274522.post-71826955835964756112012-01-20T20:24:37.261-05:002012-01-20T20:24:37.261-05:00Doodle, <br />Your my girl!! I listen to &quot;Blessed be thy name&quot; every day....I KNOW that HE is in charge, and I trust in Him. Like you, I know the road ahead is just that... and I&#39;m letting go, and letting God. THIS has been a tough week, and when all of the medical evidence is in, God is guiding our family and the specialists who will be in charge. <br /><br />I am also blessed to have you and Kristin at my side everyday, with Comer and Anne Margaret (as well as Champ and Mike), to hold us together as we stay strong. For me, it&#39;ll be another mountain, another match, another road race....for which God has never left my side....always leading me to finish the challenge. Remember, we never quit and we always give our best effort. That&#39;s because the good Lord has given us the ability to choose our outlook and our attitudes. My glass is overflowing, and (except when I break down) I&#39;m strong. <br /><br />I love you more than you can know!!<br />MomMargiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03229781271215539349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3137344675654274522.post-46618336828285079082012-01-20T12:29:20.261-05:002012-01-20T12:29:20.261-05:00Lauren, you are so inspiring.

This week. Whoa. I think I&#39;m all cried out. Talk about spiritual warfare, huh? Mama just called and said basically the same thing as your post. I&#39;ve got to just get up and every day and choose to give it to God. I have to trust that He&#39;ll take care of us. This is a BIG lesson for a control freak. :)Lauren &amp; Eddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09761829833232522912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3137344675654274522.post-88350636685254466152012-01-20T11:10:04.534-05:002012-01-20T11:10:04.534-05:00I was so encouraged by your post.

Even though I don&#39;t know you personally...I&#39;ll send a prayer up for you and your friends. Hopefully your blog will also lift some weight off your shoulders!
