Praise God for this new day! Jalin's last chest tube has been removed! Please pray that her lung will continue to inflate and deflate like it is supposed to do. She also took a ride in a wheelchair this morning about 9:00! Now that was a miracle! We strolled through the unit hallways and out into the waiting area on a fieldtrip. It wore her completely out. She is back in the bed asleep with the help of her pain meds. This is a huge step toward coming home!
We thank you for all of your love and support. This blog really gives me much needed strength!
I love everyone! Jalin says, "Hi!"
Love, Lori

God,
ReplyDeleteToday I want to thank you for all you’ve done for Jalin. You've touched her with your healing hands and you're blessing so many others as well. Today I pray you touch her lungs. Wrap your arms around them and help them to work on their own! Lord, you're so amazing and I thank you for all you've done for Jalin, her family, and our community! Continue to give them strength and patience, perseverance and hope, faith and especially your grace! Thank God and bless Preacher Darryl, Mrs. Lori, and Jordan! Amen.

Dear Jalin & family,
ReplyDeleteJust a note to let you know we are still thinking of you & praying for you. Through Kelli & this blog I feel as if I know you. I'm looking forward to the day that I'll be able to meet you all in person. Hopefully we'll be able to visit your church when you all get to go home. I'm so thankful God chose you to be a "miracle recipient". The world doesn't want to recognize the miracles that happen on a daily basis as God's work but we, as Christians, know better. Praise God for miracles & praise God for you, Jalin.
In Christian Love, Karen Dodd

She has been padded by prayer during this whole journey! It has made me stop and think and realize how precious life is and how GOD is still working miracles! I would LOVE to be able to be in the first church service she's able to attend. I know it wll truly be a BLESSING! I am the pianist of our church but I'm sure I could get someone to fill in.

ReplyDeleteHey Jalin,
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear you got the last tube out and got to get out of the room for a while. It is so amazing to see how fast God is healing you. But should we have expected any less? You are such a strong person and we all know God is in the healing business. Keep working hard & you will be home soon.

Darryl & Lori,
ReplyDeleteI praise GOD for another set of miracles! Bro. Ricky Shadrix just informed me about what happened to Jalin. In case you are not familiar with who I am, I own the company that handles your janitorial supplies at your church, Southern Supply. Your church prayed for my daughter Quinn a few months ago when she almost died from a rare virus which attacked her heart. God has healed Quinn with one miracle after the next, just as he has with Jalin. Alana had Quinn put on your church's prayer list. Quinn was in Egleston for over 30 days. GOD performed a miracle everyday we were there. I was just visiting Ricky Shadrix the other day when he told me about Jalin. I continue to pray for GOD's perfect power to heal Jalin perfectly! I don't think a day goes by when I have not just broken down and praised GOD for all the miracles he performed with healing Quinn. Jalin and Quinn are only here because of the AWESOME miracles that our wonderful GOD has performed! As I continue to pray everyday for Quinn, I will also be praying for Jalin.
Sincerely,
Chris Evans
(Quinn Evans' Dad)

Jalin,
ReplyDeleteHey baby girl! You have come a long way and I know you have a long way to go. I know the pain you must feel and I am so sorry. I wish I could hurt for you. We don't understand why things happen, but I know God chooses special people to help him with his work here on earth and He has chosen you. So much good has already come out of this accident. One day you will look back and feel honored that God loved you enough to trust you to work with Him. When you are very low and down or in pain, just remember you aren't alone. God is right there helping you through this. Put your total trust in Him. As soon as you are up to company, I want to come see you. I think of you everyday. You can stick your tougne out at me anytime you want to. (Private Joke)
Darrel and Lori, we love you and are constantly praying for you. You are like family to us. There is nothing like seeing your child suffer. You can only make it with God's strength and encouragement from your family and friends. You should feel honored God chose you to be the parents of such a special girl whom He is using to help him in His work. We are always here for you!
Love,
Wayne and Lila Wiley
