Amanda Update

I just spent 4 hours at Amanda's house while Sean was at work. His mom was there this afternoon and then I went over about 4:15. Amanda has an infection in her incision. She was very swollen and some of the staples were starting to come out. The Dr. put her on an antibiotic. She is having pain and drainage. She's uncomfortable, but still has her sense of humor. She's discouraged with this setback and would appreciate continued prayers. The biggest obstacles are keeping the kids from jumping on her and attending to their needs. I played with the kids and made peanut butter sandwiches. Our friendship has gone to another new level as she let me change her gauze while I was there. Ha ha.

She has a couple of people willing to look at fixing her computer, but doesn't know when. Hopefully it won't be too long!

Thank you for letting us know how she's doing. I have been afraid to call again cause I don't want to disturb her. Gosh, I wish things would go smoothly for that girl for once! That was awesome of you to go over and help her like that, I wish I lived closer so I could help too! Keep us posted! I hope she gets her computer fixed soon, it will give her something to do and I miss her like crazy!!

Oh I wish we lived closer so Kev could fix her PC! I will continue to pray for her. I wish things would just go her way once, this is ridiculous!! Let me know if I can do anything. Thanks for the update.
