Sisters update

Hi Everyone,

Wow...I am amazed at all the responses. God is so awesome! He's covered in prayer.

Sunday was a little emotional for us. Dennis went to visit Mark and said that Mark wanted to come home....he cried....and the short story is he was a mess. Shortly after Dennis left, Mark called Larry and said he wanted to come home...he then called Andria and later that night he called me. He said that they had only given him 1/2 abilify and a vitamin and if that was all they would do to help him, he could do it at home. He said that they didn't give him a patch or nicotine gum to help with not smoking....he was using any excuse in the book. It was hard to hear him so aggrevated yet depressed and asking to come home.

Monday came with a little encouraging news....Mark's counselor Josh called and said he met with Mark for about 45 minutes today and discussed short term medication and long term medication and that Mark seemed accepting of it and then when the meeting was over Josh said that Mark apologized and said he was sorry that they got off on the wrong foot and that he knew they were only trying to help him.

I want so bad to be jumping up and down and woohooing everything and everyone but I'm so skeptical.... I feel like it's too soon and he's just telling them what they want to hear.....but this is where I should be trusting God and seeing his hand in this...there are dozens of people praying for Mark!

Ok...onto a little funny...my 3am prayer time wasn't hard the first night but last night...now... that was a different story. I got up easily with the alarm and went right to the dining room to pray...Andria was asleep on the couch so I didn't turn on the light. I knelt by the chair and started to pray...I'm guessing I prayed for about 10 minutes...then the next thing I knew I had pain in both of my legs....pins and needles....and I looked up at the clock and it was 3:45.....hahahaha. *Note to self....turn on light and get a drink....wake up before you pray silly girl!

Thank you for all you are doing for Mark, Larry and me...I love you.
