MD Anderson

This week, I have the privilege of spending 5 days with my dear friend, Martha.  She is in Houston, TX, at MD Anderson Hospital undergoing a bone marrow transplant.   I’ve known her for almost 14 years (which is crazy because we’re not that old!).  Back when Scott and I did college ministry, Martha and her boyfriend (now husband), David, came to our little Super Bowl party and we’ve been good friends ever since!  One of the hardest things about not living in Texas anymore is being so far away from them.  Anyhow, Scott has been watching the boys back home so I can get some precious girl time with Martha!!  She’s doing great with all of her treatment and tomorrow is the big day… the transplant.  I’ve been amazed at her outlook on everything, her laughter and energy through it all.  It’s going really well so far, but we know that she’s about to be really sick.  So, please keep her in your prayers and I’ll let you know how it goes!

About Anna

I've been married to my college sweetheart for 17 years and we've been in full or part time ministry ever since. I am a stay at home mom who homeschools our oldest son (11) while our youngest son (9) attends public school. Having adopted both our kids, we are big fans of adoption. My oldest has Asperger's Syndrome and my youngest has been diagnosed with a mood disorder, possibly bi-polar. I also have two long-haired dachshunds that I adore - Eli and Graham. I enjoy camping, watching movies, listening to and singing all types of music, and just spending time together with my precious family.
