UPDATE UPDATE

Good Evening! I just spoke to Michele. Quincey has been regaining more sensation. Quincey will begin a new physical therapy regime next week. They have added several more therapy sessions.

Quincey is getting to visit with all of her sisters and immediate family this weekend. She's really enjoying it.

They wanted to thank you all again for all of the text messages, prayers and comments. They can feel the prayers working. They requested that we continue to pray for complete restoration.

There are alot of teenagers who are patients of Craig right now. Quincey has been able to interact with them which has been good for everyone involved. Can you imagine a better witness to the power of our Lord than Quincey? I sure can't.

"For I can do all things through Christ who gives me the strength I need." Philippians 4:13

"We are the children of God." Roman 8:16

"Call unto me, and I will answer thee." Jeremiah 33:3

God bless you all,

Last nights update - tonight...sorry

I am so so sorry. I spoke with Michele last night but things got crazy! Quincey had a great day yesterday. She enjoyed a visit with family.

Quincey is working very hard in therapy. This is the hardest work she's ever done and the victory there will pale compared to any basketball victory! She is keeping an eye on the prize. She is making alot of friends and these relationships will last forever.

Quincey continues to keep a smile on her face. Her smile is something that everyone expects to see! Her years of basketball have helped her muscle strength.

They have a couple of prayer requests: Robin (Quincey's roommate), Jackie from South Dakota (her parents are Chad and Debbie), and Aubrey from Nebraska (her parents are Thane and JR).

Quincey received a large number of texts over the last couple of days (thank you and lets keep her inbox full!) They read the comments every day as well (so lets keep them coming too!)

They love and miss you all!

"I love you Lord; you are my strength." Psalm 18:1

"The Lord is righteous in everything he does; He is filled with Kindness." Psalm 145:17

I am sorry again that I didn't get this posted last night. I promise to be better in the future!

God's blessings and love to you all,

Shari

Quincey's strength!

Good evening! I just spoke with Michele. Quincey is doing really well. She is always in good spirits. Her appetite is getting better. She is up on an average of 8 to 10 hours per day.

Quincey has been staying very very busy with therapy but she misses you all. All of her therapists are very impressed with her strength!

Quincey misses getting texts from everyone! (OK all.... lets fill up her text message inbox!!)

"Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord." 2Peter 1:2

"Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the woman who takes refuge in Him."
Psalm 34:8

God's blessings and love to you all,

No Update but check out the poem!

Good evening friends! I have not been in touch with anyone this evening but I just found this poem today. It was written by my Great Aunt (Neva Johnson). It was on the back of her memorial service program. I think it is WONDERFUL and again caused me a WOW moment! Most of things my Aunt Neva wrote causes me WOW moments!!

A Care Prayer
written by Neva Johnson
I just want you to know that I care about you.
There's a prayer in my heart that won't leave.
As I ask God for so many blessings for you.
Ones only through Him you receive.
He may not always send sunshine to you,
But flowers won't bloom without rain,
And we know life's a mixture of numerous things:
Laughter, trials, teardrops and pain.
Yet the prayer that I pray will see you through,
Whatever comes your way.
For I ask God to always walk with you
Hand in hand each day.
I just wanted to share this poem with you all. Our God is awesome and will see us through whatever the trials!
I will post more as soon as I know anything.
Praying that God will walk with you each day,
Shari

Good Evening!

Hello everyone! I spoke with Michele this morning. I apologize that it took me so long to get this posted. (I had to run to Glenwood Springs to pick out colors for our new home!)

Quincey is working hard! They had their first "team" meeting on Friday. She is currently a member of several teams but I'm sure that the Lady Bears will always be #1 with her!

Quincey continues to have a very positive attitude! She is such an inspiration to people (including my husband - who after a year and 1/2 has started going back to therapy!! Anyway, enough about my family!)

Michele and Quincey are still encouraged and appreciative of your thoughts and prayers.

They love you all and miss you.

"Lord, you have brought light to my life; my God, you light up my darkness." Psalm 18:28

Scott (my husband) chose this scripture tonight:

"Bless the Lord, who is my rock. He gives me strength for war and skill for battle." Psalm 144:1

Here's wishing peace, joy and love to you all,

Missed Connecting!

Good evening. I was unable to connect with anyone again today. Hopefully tomorrow!

Here are some scriptures that I wanted to pass on...(again, I probably already posted some of these but I had a WOW moment when I read them....)

"Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin, the plumb line in the hand. For the eyes of the Lord search all around the world." Zechariah 4:10

"Whatever is good and perfect comes to us from God above, who created all heaven's lights." James 1:17

"I wait for the Lord my soul waits and in his word I put my hope." Psalm 130:5

Blessings and love to you all,

Shari

Thinking, Praying and Hoping!

I'm sorry I didn't post anything last night. Another one of those nights were I was unable to connect with anyone. (Gonna happen from time to time!)

I know you are all still thinking, praying and hoping for Quincey's complete restoration so I realize that I don't need to remind you all....

I have a request.....let's fill up the comments, her text inbox and her mail box with our written words and love! Let's keep 'em busy this weekend! From experience, weekends are the hardest at Craig because there is no structured therapy....now we all know that Quincey will be working hard on her own but I think if we can keep them busy reading our love for them it will make Monday come that much faster?!?!?

Italic
I will post as soon as I hear from them!

I know that I probably have already posted some of these scriptures but I am gonna re-post ones that make me say WOW!!

"Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1

"Call unto me, and I will answer thee." Jeremiah 33:3

Wishing God's blessings for you all......
