Sickness and More Sickness

WOW.  I’m running away from home.  Too much sickness around here…lol.  Ms Angie has pneumonia (we think) and has been deathly ill.  Mom fell and broke her hip and had to have a hip replacement.  Thank God I’ve felt good and able to take care of them.   I even had to sing SOLO for the first time ever.  I almost sang solo one time before when Angie had laryngitis, but at least she stood up there with me.  This time she was in the RV shaking with fever.  We’ve had to cancel more singing this past month than all other times put together.

Update on Angie's Sickness

Well, Angie’s sickness turned out to be worse than we could imagine.  They removed the gallbladder and found stage 4 cancer, that had carried over into the liver, which is also a stage 4.  They said chemo may prolong her life for a few months, but she would be sick, so Angie chose to come home.  At this point, the Dr’s can’t help her.  God has room for a miracle.  You all know how we’ve testified in the past about miracles.  We know He IS still in the healing business, so our hope is fully in Him.  At some time or another, we all are gonna die, if the Lord don’t come first.  But until He calls, we want her to live life to the fullest, and be able to minister in song, better even than before.  We know a healing; a miracle is in the making for her right now.   She feels good, just sore from the surgery.  Her eyes are bright and she’s made us all laugh.  Each day is a blessing to have her with us and we’ve learned to lean on Him.  We still trust You Lord.  He has hovered around our house and Angie even felt His hand one night, as clear as day.  Thank you Lord.  It was such an encouragement to her. I’m so thankful for those who have sent support and help.  Next newsletter, I’ll expound on that.

Website in Angie's Honor

A friend of ours, Donita Wiggins, set up a face book page for Angie called “Praying for Angie”.   It has a lot of good stuff about Ms Angie and some video and song clips. 

Also, everyone can go in and post something on the page and tell her how they are praying.  It’s so encouraging and wonderful.

Angie hasn’t felt good enough yet to see the page in its fullness, but I showed her some of it and she just cried and said how much people loved her.

She seems astonished at how many people have called or emailed and said how much they love her.  It’s just been unreal. 

Keep her in your prayers and Donita will post updates on that page and let you know how she’s doing. We love all of you and so appreciate being part of God’s family.  We have felt the love and the prayers daily of so many. 

One pastor told us “When you feel like you are on the bottom, remember that’s impossible, because God’s Strong Arms are under you, holding you up.”  

We love you all,
Nella and Angie Jenkins
