I just wanted to pop in real quick and say hello and ask for your prayers for my husbands Uncle Jimmy or ‘Uncle Mimmy’ as he’s affectionately called. He’s preparing for surgery to remove a tumor from his brain this week. He’s a great big bear of a man, a police detective by trade, recently retired, but my favorite thing about Jimmy is that every time (for 13+ years now) that I arrive at any family gathering or whatever, he breaks out in song, in a loud, deep voice singing the song I was named after, “They call.. the wind.. Mariah!” Makes me smile every time and I look forward to hearing it again when he’s home and better. Please do pray as you are reminded, it would mean a lot to me and I’m sure to the whole family. Thank you!
Things happened really quickly with Jim, just the week before all of this happened, we were celebrating his son’s new job… it’s one of those things that make you think about where you’re going and what you spend your time doing. I urge you to spend a moment right now to just be sure that you are doing what you ought to be. That you are loving the people who matter to you… their presence is surly a gift and deserves to be celebrated in all the ordinary moments.
And because I hate posting without photo’s, here’s a little hula girl I finished up just now… Love & care, m {xoxoxoxo}
Mariah, I am sending your family my prayers. Taking that time to be in the moment is so important. So happy for you that you have such good people around you. How cool is that to have him sing to you when he sees you! I am also happy that he has you to pray for him and you even are sweet enough to ask others to help you pray.
I will pass your post on. The more prayers the better.
Sending you positive energy and a lot of prayers!
Thank you so much Lidia! I do love hearing him sing ‘my song’ in that great baritone voice! Surgery is planned for this Friday, so please keep him in your thoughts that day especially. Thank you so much dear friend for praying for a complete stranger… you are so appreciated, may God bless your sweet heart. xoxoxoxox, m
*sending good thoughts for Uncle Mimmy* I hope the surgery was a success and that he is recovering quickly.
ánimo, un abrazo muy grande
I hope all has gone well with your uncle’s tumor and surgery. Praying now that he is recovering.
I came upon your blog over a year ago because of your great art. I have faith in the strength of God, and your prayer request was on my heart.
P.S. A friend at our church also has a brain tumor. It can’t easily be operated on, but she’s doing great with chemo . . . and faith!
