Blog 101 - To those of you who are new to blogs and blogging, I wanted to give a brief overview of how to use this site. There are authors and followers. Authors are Val and Connie. Followers are all of our wonderful support system that continue to follow Bru's journey through this battle. Authors create posts, followers can read posts and comment on posts that have been created. As a follower you don't have to log in in with an account or sign in to comment. If there is a post that you are interested in commenting on, just click the comment icon below the post itself. Once you have typed your post, you must choose an account just below the text box, choose anonymous! If you are looking for all of the posts to the blog, scroll down the page and look to the right of the screen, every post is listed there by month and day. It's listed chronologically starting newest to oldest. If you want to add pictures, please email me at emtp1124@yahoo.com with a description of the picture and the caption you would like underneath it. Blogging is very similar to Facebook and other social sites, but it doesn't have the ability to post things to the blog like you do people's walls in facebook. If you are having problems viewing the blog, it may be because of settings that you have on your internet browser . You can type the URL into your smart phone browser as well and see the blog pretty well. If you want updates sent to you anytime things are updated, subscribe to the blog by email. This option is at the top of the page on the right hand side of your screen just above the picture of Bruce. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at emtp1124@yahoo.com.

SURGERY - SUCCESS!! Yay!

I just want to say THANK YOU for all the prayers, cards, emails, posts, phone calls, and support from so many people. We are truly humbled. Bruce has made it through the surgery well. He is pretty out of it but recognizes us and gave me a kiss, (actually, a few)! ALWAYS a positive sign, in my opinion! Glad he knows who his wife is . The inside joke is that he now gets to hold up a sign that says "I HAD A BRAIN TUMOR" when asked anything and 'nuf said!! We are so blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people, each and every one of you. Know that we love you and send out hugs/kisses as if you were right with us, even though you cannot physically be where we are.

Still don't know how long the stay will be in the hospital. It's too soon to tell. I will let you all know when that information is shared with Bruce and I. Keep the faith!!! Miracles DO happen! Already witnessed one; right???

    Val and Bruce, I am so thankful that the surgery went well with no complications. That is what I prayed. I am praying for a miracle for Bruce, because they do happen. I love the blog. What a great way to let people support you. Love you and think of you often Val. Lynn

      Yes miracles do happen, I have seen them and experienced them. Speaking life and believing that all things are possible through Christ is biblical consept and was true yesterday, today and forever.
