New Challenges for a New Year! January 4, 2012
Can you believe it is already a new year?! I am amazed at how old all my children will turn this year, 16, 14, 11, 9 and 6. Wow! We had a nice New Year watching movies at home.
We have no help from the county any more though at all, which makes meeting the basics really tough. We are trying to clear this up, but there are no guarantees that will happen anytime soon. The county is slow. We are being penalized because THEY typed our address into their system wrong. Our address is correct on the papers we turned in, but was put in wrong. We received paperwork extremely late because of the wrong address, requested they correct it, and still have no money from them.
Lord, we applied for Gabriela for SSI because of her complicated conditions in November and are still waiting for a decision. Lord, please speed up an approval. This would really take the load off.
Lord, we also applied for IHSS, and had to reschedule when Scott was in the hospital. We have not been able to get a single call back to reschedule this appointment. Lord, please put us on the hearts of those involved in our case and get the right person to return our phone calls and move this along for approval.
Amen.

All The Little Angels: December 26, 2011
Praise you Lord, and thank you for all your little angels.
Praise you Lord, and thank you for all the little miracles in our lives.
Thank you St. Joseph, most loving father, for your intercession and prayers.
Thank you St. Rita, saint of the most impossible causes, for your intercession and prayers.
Because of washer and dryer angels, we now have a washer and dryer that works without ripping our clothes. Our clothes dry, and somehow we got through the month.
We had little money for gifts this year for Christmas. God sent more angels. We were honored to be visited by Make-A-Wish, and each of the children got nice gifts. Our favorite was the family gift "Christmas-opoly" which we all enjoyed playing together.
Praise you Lord, and thank you for your healing.
Praise you Lord, and thank you for your love and patience.
Scott has been getting better. The doctors believe that his pancreas may be coming back. He has been able to decrease both types of insulin he is on since he got out of the hospital due to very stable blood sugars, fast and long acting.
We are praying for a healing miracle. In the interim, since Scott has been unable to go to work the last two months, we applied for SSDI. We are still waiting, praying and hoping as that would really help with monthly bills.
After so much trouble with Michael's Eosinophilic Esophagitis in October and November, we are so glad to report that Michael is back on foods. He was able to start eating vegetables, rice and for Christmas he was thrilled to be able to add ham back in. He has been doing well with that also. Drinking so much elecare, about 40 cans a month, food was a great gift. The hardest part was the candy that he could not have. Elecare is expensive at $30.00 a can or $1200.00 a month, it is an expensive diet, which Medi-Cal supposedly will not cover anymore. We haven't receive a deliver in two months now. We are praying for some miracle either in healing or provision for such an expensive formula. Elecare is an elemental formula which is non-dairy and already broken down into the most basic elements; this way his body cannot react to the proteins in any way avoiding problems with swallowing and swelling.
We are praying for a financial miracle to help with the on-going medical treatment which Medi-Cal seems to pay less and less of. They don't cover Michael's cooling supplies either with his temperature disregulation (Dysautonomia, possibly from Riley-Day Syndrome). At least it is winter, which makes it easy for him to step outside in the cold when he is hot and requires he use cooling packs less often. The weather has been warming up though, oh my.
Thank you Lord for all the many small miracles and ways in which you keep us going.
Praise you Lord for being able to at least catch up on the mortgage after such an unexpected hospitalization for Scott.
St. Joseph, St. Rita, Mary and all the saints, we plead with you to intercede on our behalf to catch up on all the bills, pay them off, especially the utilities which we need each day. In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
Joseph is still using both of his inhalers and oxygen more heavily, with daily episodes of chest pain. Gabriela has had her medication increased twice already, which is helping her better. We are still waiting for neurology, who states we will get a call some time by the end of February to make an appointment for her. This means we will be waiting many more weeks just for the initial appointment. Praise the Lord, Joshua and Shawna are healthy. We are also waiting for results from tests for Joseph by the urologist.
All the kids helped decorate the Christmas tree, the house inside and out, and set up the nativitiy in anticipation of Christmas. I am only disappointed that the camera was lost, so we have not been able to take a single picture this year. We have turned the house upside down and had no luck. St. Anthony, please help us find our camera.
Merry Christmas, and Christ's peace to you this season!!
