Accepted

First of all, let me just say - we have crammed a lot into the last couple of weeks.  It's just way to crazy around here.

 

This post is actually about today though.  This morning, Ron got an email saying that he would have his Skype interview with the guys at the London School of Theology and his Asbury profs...today at 1:30pm

 

 

Ron didn't sleep very well last night and has just had a lot on his mind lately.  So I was a little concerned for him with this interview. 

 

It is over now and he has been accepted as an MPhil student in preparation for PhD!

This is a little behind with the recommendations that needed to be made from the summer and with changing his advisor at Asbury, but we are pleased!

 

 

Ron will be traveling on Nov. 1st to Wilmore for an intense German class.  It will be 2 weekends.  This will help him continue on with the reading and research that he needs to be doing.

 

Additionally, tomorrow he will turn 41!  He will also begin tomorrow to give the injections for the stem cell transplant that will take place on Monday!

 

A lot is going on, but the Lord remains in control.  We continue to trust in Him!

Ryan

Ryan was admitted yesterday and he had surgery to put a tri central line in.  I guess this is similar to the port that he has had in the past.  It is also, in my understanding, not in the same exact place. 

I am hoping to have updates to pass along, but we would appreciate your prayers. 

Holly is with Ryan at the hospital.  Ron and Ryan's mom, Frances, is in Circleville with the 4 girls.  Ron (their dad, ie. grandpa) is home and working.  Please pray for all involved as this is hard for everyone.  Ron and I will travel to Columbus on Sunday evening (I think) to be ready for Monday morning.  My mom is coming to stay with our 4!

So lots of people are involved and need prayer!  Thank you for your faithfulness to us and our family during this time!

God is good and we trust that He has each one in His arms to protect, comfort and provide for!

Thank you!
