Victory

News from the Front Lines. One of the battles has been won!!! Now it's time to regroup, gain strength, and continue on to the next battle. This war is not over yet, but we have God on our side and the sword of the Spirit - The word of God and all of it's promises and all the prayers of God's people.

Victory is won not in miles but in inches. Win a little now,
hold your ground, and later, win a little more.
- Louis L`Amour

At 2:00 this morning, we couldn't sleep. So we watched a Louis L'Amour cowboy video. 


Today they are giving Jerry a blood transfusion to help him start regaining some of his strength. The chemo has took a lot out of him. His oxygen levels were very low today. But his white blood cell counts are already starting to rise. And that's a good thing.
We love you!
Jerry and Patricia
