Please Pray for the family of Cole Corteau.....

Morning!  Up since 4:15 a.m. due some "jerk" waking up the puppies we are fostering.  UGH!  I'm the one that can't go back to sleep sooooo....here I am.  Sooo annoying!

Tomorrow, we will travel to Columbus, Georgia for physical therapy.  It will be Natalie's first day.  And I'm afraid it is not going to be good.  Unfortunately, she is still having alot of pain at the incision site.  Not sure if this is normal or not for this type of surgery.  So, we are looking for that answer as well as a few more tomorrow.  Please pray for her continued healing!

While since I'm asking you to pray, I will do so again.  Please pray for the family of Cole Corteau.  Who Our Lord called home last night.  This ray of sunshine suffered from Cystic Fibrosis and is now peacefully breathing with Our Father.  His grandmother Madeline, is a friend of ours and was Cole's biggest cheerleader.  Our hearts break for her, her son(Eric) and his family.

Because my soul is screaming this morning, I have to find some positives to talk about.  First, our community has reached out and supported this family.  A wonderful site to see.  One thing that stands out in my mind was last week, the students of East Coweta High School.  For at their homecoming, those loving and wonderful students, voted and crowned Cole their Homecoming King.  An awesome, heartwarming gesture by a loving student body.  Unfortunately, Cole was in ICU battling for his life at the time.  But, I'm guessing that gesture meant a lot to the family members that were holding on to every scrap of HOPE they could at the time.

Second, so that we all may learn from Cole's battle and others suffering from CF.  I humbly ask you to watch this video by One Republic that highlights the disease:
