Woohoo! I finally got Bobby's address today! Please send him mail! Letters, cards, whatever! Words of encouragement and praise are much needed during this difficult time. It will really mean a lot to get something from you, even if you and he are not family or the best of friends. Just knowing people care and are thinking about and praying for him will keep him motivated!

I have not talked to him in a week now so it was so great to get a letter from him. So far he sounds good, his body is tired and sore but holding up okay at this point. He is an old man, ya know! Please continue to keep us all in your prayers. Gage and I are doing good. Missing Daddy bunches but I know the end result is worth the sacrifice. The hardest part is not being able to talk to my best friend. I think about him constantly.
Love you all!
Thinking of you, Adriel ... and praying for all of you! I'm glad you're getting letters from Bobby now ... hopefully that will help you feel less "disconnected" ... I know it must be very difficult. We're very proud of all of you and the sacrifices you are making. You are right ... it will all be worth it in the end! Stay strong! We love you!
