Good morning everyone. Before I give my update on Laila I just want to say how much all the prayers have meant to us all. God has shown His hand in everything...from the doctors, the nurses, and even medical staff that brought food, and just saw to monetary needs. We had some pray for us and with us, some just speak words of encouragment, and all of it just felt like God constantly speaking to me/to us and it has been such a comfort. Not only that but everyone who has prayed for us, reached out to us...it has been overwhelming but in a good way. Its such a blessing to be a part of God's family.

So now our update:
Yesterday morning a surgeon came in, told me what the plan was moving forward, and then left. Hours later, a medical specialist came in and brought in a medical vac machine that he would be applying to her leg.
The state of mind I was in was that there is no way we can go home with her leg like this. I was feeling some anxiety and trying to trust the process and that doctors know better than me but I was feeling a bit nervous about it all.
When he came in with the machine, the first thing he did was introduce himself and say this was his ministry, and could he pray with me and for Laila. It was what I needed for what came next. So he explained the machine, how it worked, let me get comfortable with it, and said he'd be back to apply the machine to her wound.
He came in later, and it was a painful process, but he explained every step in detail to me and Laila, he made sure she understood what was happening, and they got it all connected, and got her settled. Then he turned to me and said, ok...you're all set to go home. I was like wait, what?! He just said yeah, you're good to go.
After that it was a whirlwind. The nurse was so kind...she could tell I was a bit stunned, so she took her time going through everything with me from meds, to making sure I was comfortable with the machine, discharge papers, follow up appointments, and more. She sat with me and helped me through everything.
So im so happy to report that WE ARE HOME!!!
It was a bit rough getting her home and she had a bit of a painful night, but now we are settled in and just adjusting to handicap life for a while.
Still a long road ahead, but God has been so good and we cant be thankful enough to everyone for all yall have done for us.
I wil keep updates going but for now, we are home, settled, and taking it day by day.
Love you all and thank you again so much ❤️

Good morning, church!

Please continue to remember Miss Paula in your prayers. She underwent surgery yesterday, and from what Brother Johnny shared, everything went well and as expected. She is now resting and recovering. Please continue to lift her up in prayer for healing and strength.

Also, Brother Bobby is scheduled for a heart catheterization this morning at 10:00 in Augusta. He's been struggling with dizziness and some other health issues and has had a rough time here lately. Please keep him in your prayers as well.

I'm so thankful that we serve a good and faithful God who is able to meet every need. Even when the outcome may not be what we hoped or prayed for, we can trust that He knows what is best. My prayer is that we will continue to lean on Him, trust in His goodness, and rest in His faithfulness through every circumstance.

Love you all, and thank you for being a church family that prays for one another!

Morning update: had a bit of a rough night. She's been sick to her stomach and throwing up some. Walking to and from the bathroom has been really painful but shes a trooper and been handling it all in stride. Hopefully will speak to a doctor today or tomorrow about what happens next. They havent given us much information yet bc its more of a waiting game right now, which we understand but it can still be frustrating not knowing whats going to happen or what shes going to need. Just trying to be patient. We have told her and shown her all the texts messages, the phone calls, and comments on social media and she is overwhelmed by the prayers and support from you all. It is so very good to be a part of the family of God. Thank you all so much.

Hey everyone. I have some family news to share. Our oldest, Laila, was in a bad car accident early Sunday morning. She was thrown out of a window of the car and sent to the hospital with a deep laceration to her face, fractured collarbone, and a degloving of her left side calf.
Her face was sewn by a plastic surgeon so it looks really good but her cheek is swollen of course. Her collarbone is just something that has to heal in time but she is in a sling to help. Her leg was washed out when they brought her in, but they took her in this morning for surgery to do a deep wash and detailing cleaning of the wound. They had to trim some dead tissue/skin so a skin graft may be in her future, and they will not be sewing it up.
We're looking at a few days in the hospital, maybe more depending on the care she will need. Im staying with her during the day and at night and her daddy is here between bus driving shifts.
My momma and daddy are headed up here to help out for the week.
Were just asking for prayers and thank yall in advance.
I will try to keep updating as much as possible.
Love you all ❤️
