Changes in Latitude

Posted by Viewfinder (Bradenton, United States) on 28 September 2007 in People & Portraits.

Me and Mrs. VF, incognito behind our shades at a beach restaurant in paradise, right after we moved to FL. We actually had this one made into a Christmas card photo insert last year.

Please pray for Bella.

Bella Update: 07/23/08. Wednesday. Another good Bella morning, she is in good spirits, even with they mysterious disappearance of our normally numerous and active neighborhood squirrel population. Maybe "Sheriff Bella" has cleaned out Dodge and sent all those tree-climbing hoodlums packing. Heh.

Bella and I appreciate each of you for caring and praying. Please understand this miracle being prayed for, because although it is day by day, it also may take a bit of time for completion: Bella's battle for life, wellness, and a healed heart isn't a sprint but a long-distance run.

What we have right now are daily blessings: I am prayerfully thankful that her good days may be God's bit by bit miracle that is slowly unfolding.

So good to meet you Viewfinder - I remember you were the first person to comment on one of my photos after I joined in June. It meant a lot to me to be encouraged by someone I'd never met. Thank you for your frequent kind comments! I often drop by to see new members' work thanks to your good example!
BTW - nice shot of you and Mrs VF! cheers Bron

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States

Update on our son's post-op recovery. Slooooowly improving; metabolism needs to catch up with him so digestion process can go normally again. Plenty of pain meds to keep that gradual, which frustrates him because he wants to go home. We need to return to FL over the weekend; dr. is satisfied with the progress... I guess that's ok.
