I love my FAMILY!

Van has been able to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner and keep it all down. He had two other forms of Chemo today and so far so good.


His brother Lane, came and spent a couple of hours with him today and it meant a great deal to Van to have a wonderful gospel discussion and search the scriptures together. Van speaking: The subject we discussed was the Abrahamic Covenant and what it really means to us. Elder Bednar spoke at a Priesthood Leadership Session of Conference for our Region a couple of years ago. He began his comments with this question, “Brethren, are you living your lives in such a way that your temple sealing can be sealed?” Unless our marriage is sealed by the Holy Spirit of Promise we don’t have an eternal family. The Abrahamic Covenant to me is all about eternal families and our responsibility as children of Israel to provide the promises and blessings of the temple to all of our brothers and sisters-- so they have eternal families also.


Grandpa Poole is spending the night and he’s taking good care of me, which allows Wendy to spend some needed time with the children, do taxes and other things that need her immediate attention. I’m trying to persuade Grandpa to make a road trip to the store to buy me some Pringles – Original flavor. I’m feeling like a pregnant woman, I’m having cravings. Yesterday it was corn nuts, today it’s Pringles (the best potato chip ever made). It’s the absolute cure for Cancer.
