I can well tell by your tone, the fight isn't over as of yet. I wish you good news and viable options on your visit to UVA. I thank you for allow us in, to journey with you and observe your stamina, grace and courage under fire. Know that many of us have learned and walk in your footsteps hoping to emulate a small fraction of your dauntless spirit. <br /><br />God bless...<br /><br />Debbie Hennessy Stage 4 MM<br />Chesapeake, VAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428754636016738068.post-64118162174250929592009-09-19T13:32:18.496-04:002009-09-19T13:32:18.496-04:00Dan, the business of life took me away from your b...Dan, the business of life took me away from your blog for too long. I agree with the comment that you should put this into a book. It would be an inspiration to all, as we all, in various ways, face this reality. You have communicated the experience of facing death head on in an unflinching and incredibly helpful way. Your words are a priceless guide for the most difficult part of life. May God continue to bless you, whatever the outcome. Your meditations give me courage. <br /><br />Stan NealAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428754636016738068.post-86473805974466838402009-09-18T09:12:17.418-04:002009-09-18T09:12:17.418-04:00Dr. Dan,

I doubt if you remember me but I was ...Dr. Crabtree<br />I doubt if you remember me but I was a patient of yours in the Providence office. I just found out that you were ill yesterday. The person also told me to visit your blog. <br /><br />You should be compiling your thoughts into a book. When your grands get older I think they will appreciate the messages you gave to others. When I would see you in the office I never knew you could wax so poetic. Beautiful writing is hard to find under the best circumstances. <br /><br />You shared:<br />"Already passed from death to life<br />No longer bound by mortal strife<br />May I be found with smiling face<br />When I am called home by His grace."<br /><br />I am not sure if you have heard of James Weldon Johnson. He wrote a series of poems called "God's Trombone." There is one in particular that you might love to read it is called "Go Down Death." <br /><br /><br />If you want to hear a great version of this poem I hope you will enjoy Wintley Phipps. Rev. Phipps at one time sang with Billy Graham's Crusade. It is great to think all of us might go home like this. <br /><br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQYrF2g_48o<br /><br /><br />I hope you will enjoy this song also. I think it is called "Fill the World With Love."<br /><br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUbBvo1Sa34&feature=relatedBrenda Searsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428754636016738068.post-4931714663822410572009-09-12T11:34:39.029-04:002009-09-12T11:34:39.029-04:00The prayers continue.

I am one of the fortunate ones to have you literally as a brother. As I told you when we were out sailing you are a saint and have been a total blessing to my sister and our entire family.I so look forward to your blog and am always anxious to get your medical updates. I pray that the Lord continues to make this journey meaningful and special as he has been. I know the Lord still has great things in store. We love you and pray for your peace and comfort.Susie and Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17501008629397911788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428754636016738068.post-46508359518953930302009-09-12T00:49:43.379-04:002009-09-12T00:49:43.379-04:00Dan,

Tears come to my eyes when I read your blog.I am sure your Christian beliefs have been a great testimony to many. I have prayed for healing and asked others in our church and Bible Study to do the same. As we know our fate is totally in his hands.

...Thanks for the meaningful post and prayer poetry.<br /><br />My children have received two praying stuffed animals programmed with the bedtime prayer, although both versions were a bit different from the original. I can only remember one now:<br /><br />Now I lay me down to sleep<br />I pray the Lord my soul to keep<br />The angels watch me through the night <br />Until I wake in morning's lightSonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05758553070780357607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8428754636016738068.post-18844984066349205072009-09-11T15:49:16.373-04:002009-09-11T15:49:16.373-04:00It's amazing to me that what you are learning ...It's amazing to me that what you are learning and sharing is to a smaller degree what GOD has been teaching me in the past month, only for different reasons...different places and scenarios in our journeys. Looking at the reality of what is in our bodies, we cannot dispute the problems, the deterioration, the evidence of a health issue and what our senses are saying , HOWEVER, what we can choose to set our eyes on, believe and recieve in the spirit realm is what we already have because of Jesus. That being healing. It's true, we may have evidence of something on or in our bodies, but we have been healed by the LORD's stripes and the manifestation of that just hasn't showed up yet. So I have been so encouraged by GOD's word and speaking truth into my life and on behalf of the lives of others and I dont want to let what is to the senses, a reality.... blind me of the joy I will have when the healing's been manifested. Obviously we dont know when, how or what we have to experience before that manifestation is there, but it helps me overcome fear...it helps me stay focused on GOD's love for me and what HE did for me.....it helps me encourage others to believe and trust GOD no matter how bleak the situation looks and I just cant tell you how much I have learned from your blog entries and what a blessing you and Linda have been...I have to agree, I really do prefer Paul's perspective in laying down to sleep. My parents will be visiting the day you go back to Charlottesville and I have shared your blogs with them and we are going tojoin together to specifically be praying for you that day. No matter what the outcome, GOD is with you. <br />AudreyAudrey Lewisnoreply@blogger.com
