When I told Tearle about Carly a few weeks ago, he said..."You know, the Freels will make lemonade out of this - that's why Carly is as wonderful as she is!" You just proved him right! Keep it up! Love you all and pray for you everyday!
ReplyDeleteCarly,
ReplyDeleteMy son, Travis Gill, was Kevin's roommate freshman year at A&M. Just wanted to say that I am so sorry this is happening to you. I have seen God perform many miracles over the past few years. I have seen him completely heal this disease you are fighting, and I know He will heal you too.
You have a wonderful and loving family and a strong faith. Now, let God be the Pilot and you be the co-pilot. We are praying for you.
