Duke

JSYK (that's "just so you know" for all of you non-texters--not that I know much about texting myself), I talked with Duke today. I am in the process of getting in touch with the neurosurgeon here to FedEx copies of Mike's MRI's and a sample tissue from the biopsy to them. Duke wants to do a reading of the tissue themselves. The doctor here has known since yesterday that we're looking at going to Duke, but they seem to lollygag a bit around here, so I'm trying to go ahead and get that ball rolling.

Diane,

I can't even imagine what you are going through. I heard about Mike in Staff meeting on Monday and I have been praying for you guys ever since.

Thank you for giving your church family the privelege of praying with you. God is the God of miracles and He is in control.

Love you guys,
Mary Privette

Bubba and Diane, You are in our prayers, and thoughts. If anyone can beat this, it is STARNES. Just remember how bad you were when you had your knee operated on. With friends you got through that. And you will get through this also

"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

Diane,
I just wanted you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. In fact, Ms. Doretha, Ms. Gloria, V. Stilwell and I prayed for you and Mike yesterday in my office.
When you get ready to travel to Duke, please contact me concerning the hospital, clinic, parking, hotel accomodations, whatever you need. We will be traveling there in March and I will be glad to help in anyway that I can. Don't forget to take care of yourself too.
In Christ Love,
Linda Goodwin

Diane,

Tyler and I heard about Mike and wanted to let you know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. We haven't known you very long, but our hearts go out to you. If there's anything we can do for you, just give the word.

And thanks for keeping this blog. It cannot be easy, especially considering the challenges of living between the hospital & hotel. We will continue to check in.

-Kedrick, Crista, Tyler, & Chris
