Friday morning...about 10 a.m....I phoned Kathy, Dr. Wong's nurse...i got the answering machine...my message went something like this..."we are concerned about Ramona's tumor and are feeling impatient...Ramona has a tingling feeling in her arm like when her tumors were bigger..." ....ten minutes later...Kathy calls me during coffee break..."the CT results are right in front of me...the tumors shrunk...come meet with dr. wong on monday at 11:45 a.m...." needless to say i was absolutely blown away and shrieked (i guess you can ask my co-workers, i'm sure it was more of a manly grunt of joy) in delight and booked it in my little Neon as fast as i could to go tell Mony (she was volunteering at school)........a day later now...it is still encouraging to have good results (although we don't know the details of how good they are)...Ramona's arm still feels like it used to which makes us wonder what's going on with that tumor...we pray we can be in Toronto ASAP...
Learning to trust the God of miracles,

Amberley & I were sitting here quickly checking for some good news before heading off to bed...and there it was!!! We are so very excited! We're just picturing you speeding on those roads, Earl, as you rushed off to tell Ramona the great news! Amberley's still laughing about the "manly grunt of joy" comment.

We'll be hoping and praying that the tingling is growth of new healthy skin cells, or something good anyway!

We're shrieking with feminine grunts of joy here! HeHeHe

Love You Guys!!
Linda & Amberley

SWEET! Looking forward to seeing you here in Toronto shortly. Although there's still so much within the realm of the unknown, it must be nice to have at least another peek at what's going on in Ramona's body. God is and will continue to do his thing. Praying for you guys and waiting with you to hear what shall all transpire from here...

It was great to see you for that 30 seconds today, and wish i could've actually talked to you a bit. i guess it'll have to wait 'til next weekend.
I was very excited to hear the news about your tumors, and will keep on praying that the detailed results that you hear on Monday will be more phenomenal than anything you could ask or imagine.
love you guys

Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I am still thinking about you and praying for you. Sorry to miss you at EMCup, but Scott was glad to see you . . . I did meet your parents, though. I am encouraged by the way God has worked in your lives through this.

PRAISE THE LORD!!!! I am again amazed by God's answers to prayer!
Lord, please touch Ramona's arm. May the tingling she feels be Your touch healing her. We thank You and praise You for your mighty works in Earl and Ramona's lives and we are so grateful for all that You have done for them. We've asked so much already, but we ask again, Lord....heal this child of Yours. Please be with Earl and Ramona in the days and weeks to come. Amen.

Ever praying for you...
