Now for the Challenge

[Dewjunkie]

Well, Amanda is finally home (WOO HOO!!), but she is already having some troubles adjusting to being home.  She is finding it harder to cope with the loss of Caira, her paralysis, and me having to take care of her.  More than once yesterday she said she felt "useless" and "too much a burden" for me to have to bear.  I don't have any issues with taking care of her, and I have tried to make it perfectly clear to her that I don't.  But I can't help being exhausted at the end of the day, because I am also taking care of our 2 year old, Chloe, and just finished getting our new house unpacked.  This is the part that I knew would be challenging, and I am asking that all of you remember us in your prayers and especially lift Amanda up and pray for strength for her.  Thank you.

Glad that Amanda is finally home! I will certainly keep you both in my prayers for the long road ahead!

So glad that Amanda is finally home. I'm sure she is probably familiar with Joni Erickson Tada(sp?). Maybe it would help if Amanda could read some of Joni's books. Joni shares her struggles with paralysis in her books.

I'm praying for you and Amanda.

Praying God will give your family all the strength, courage, and healing it still needs

 

[Dewjunkie]

Auntie, yes we already have Joni's story, and a devotion book by her. I am hoping some of the things she has to say will help Amanda. Amanda has had a better day today, and I thank you all for your prayers.
