Web Site Feature Update – Twitter!

I thought it might be interesting to get a bit of Monica’s daily perspective, so I set her up with a Twitter account.  For those of you unfamiliar with Twitter, it’s an interesting new way of “auto-updating” people with short messages that can be viewed online or through text messages.  Twitter is supposed to be one of those killer new applications like MySpace or Facebook that is taking the internet by storm.

The way it works is that Monica can send a text message from her cell phone from anywhere she might be at that moment.  Anyone who is her Twitter friend will automatically get her message with her update, and any program that collects her Twitter info is also automatically updated.  I set up this website to collect her Twitter updates and post them at the top of the sidebar.

It’s just another little way of staying connected to her throughout the days ahead.  If you already have a Twitter acount, you can add her to your friend’s list with our username: solandmonica and she’ll also get your updates.

Thanks.

This Week’s Schedule – Tests, tests and more tests

After making the most difficult decision of my life, I am ready to begin fighting this thing. We were listening to the radio and a song came on that touched me. One line in the song says, “I will walk through the fire, if you want me to.” I don’t know what God has planned through this, but I know that he works all things for the good of those who love him and are called according to His purpose. As I recover from today, I prepare for the rest of the week. I have so many appointments. Wed – CT scan at 4, Thurs – Echocardiogram at 1:30, Fri – Bone Scan at 11. I plan to start chemotherapy Monday the 22nd. I am taking it one day at a time and finding times to smile and times to weep. Thanks for your continued prayers, support and encouragement. (Chrysa, thanks for dinner!)

Welcome!

Welcome to our new web site!  Thanks for visiting; especially now as we endure a time of trial with Monica’s cancer. 

We hope to use this web site to keep you all better informed.  We appreciate everyone’s support and apologize for not being able to update everyone personally all the time, but it’s a true testament to the love that you all have been showing… there are just too many of you to update and we appreciate that!

As we start updating the site with stories and pictures, I’d like to ask everyone to stop by the “Encouragement Guest Book” to leave some words of encouragement, hope, love, prayers, etc for Monica.  My hope is that the guestbook will serve as a way for you to reach out to her and also that it would be a great reminder to of the many people who are supporting her.

Thank you all.

God bless.
