I heard about this blog over a year ago and have been following it since. Your testimony, your faith, and that of your family, has been both an encouragement and challenge for me. I thank God that He has enabled you to share Him with those who read this. May God grant you both the strength you need, and His perfect peace to quiet your fears and anxieties.

I will pray that the your faith will keep the devil at bay in your lives and that your wife will wake strong and ready each day. It is a testament to your love story when we have to care for those we love. I'm sure you have much help and I often wonder what I might do for you, knowing exactly what your family is enduring and understanding your physical changes, but I will pray for you.Kelly O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01395316461508115484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5376552030229103524.post-40875299653955824162014-02-27T18:24:21.645-05:002014-02-27T18:24:21.645-05:00Dear Jack & Lena, Praying.

Only you and the family know, really, how difficult it really is.<br />You have been most gracious in your response to this dreadful disease. To God be the glory. <br />I thank you so much for sharing. I have been touched by your honest and open blogs which I receive in my email. It has been a learning curve for me. Who knows how many other lives you have touched by your blogs?<br />Only God knows. May he bless you as He carries you through these days, one day at a time.<br />(makes me think of the chorus, below)<br />My heart goes out to you, Lena and all the family. I pray you will receive everything you can possibly need by His gracious hand. <br />Mary Droogendyk <br /><br />One day at a time, sweet Jesus, that's all I'm asking from You<br />Give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do<br />Yesterday's gone, sweet Jesus, and tomorrow may never be mine<br />So for my sake, teach me to take one day at a timeMary D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08230316498206020268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5376552030229103524.post-38345026100874858592014-02-27T12:21:53.882-05:002014-02-27T12:21:53.882-05:00praying for the both of you.praying for the both of you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5376552030229103524.post-53239186108199666692014-02-27T12:05:59.105-05:002014-02-27T12:05:59.105-05:00Just to let you know they are exactly the things w...Just to let you know they are exactly the things we pray for you and Lena before you even told us! Our hearts go out to both of you in this long and difficult journey. Lena must be exhausted and I can only slightly imagine how anxious it must be for you Jack to have swallowing/choking episodes. I think it'd be like drowning. I still can't get over how you are still able to communicate with your computerized gadgets. What a wonderful blessing that invention is! So nice to still be able to "hear your voice". Your are often in our minds and prayers.
