Lydia here:) I'm not the writer that Hannah is, but she does have a full-time job so you'll have to put up with me when she's not able to post updates. Dad is doing really well. Thank you all so much for your prayers!
Dad is up and walking some with a walker and will come home with a walker. He is under the care of physical and occupational therapists and is trying different exercises in order to rebuild his strength as well as re-learn how to do certain things. He's hoping to get down to the hospital's piano and try his hands out there tomorrow!
We still have not heard back from the pathology lab- hoping to hear tomorrow at the latest. This will determine the course of treatments available to Dad and help to know what will be most successful. Please pray for continued wisdom for the medical staff and our family as these decisions are made.
We are in the process also of determining what changes will need to be made to Dad and Mom's home so that it will be easily accessible for Dad as he goes about his daily living. We are also praying about the scheduling and place of Dad's treatments and would appreciate your prayers joining with ours.
Thank you again for all of your prayers and support this past week. Tomorrow it will be a week since we found out that Dad had the tumor and what a week it has been! It has been a week to renew our focus on what is true and lovely and real, a week to remind us that our treasure should be in heaven, a week to focus on the cross and on Jesus Christ. It has been a week of praying that God will be glorified by our actions and reactions, a week of believing in and praying for miracles, a week of praising God for all His gifts. What a gift the Body of Christ is! We have just been overwhelmed by your love for our family! All the visits, all the prayers said and tears shed for us, all the cards and meals and phone calls and e-mails!!!!! This is Jesus Christ in you, we are so blessed to be a part of the Body of Christ with you!!!!
We love you, our brothers and sisters!

you know we are very close to their house. Can we do anything at all...inside or out?
Ready and waiting to do anything. Just let us know the need. Love you guys and still praying.
You all have been a wonderful gift to our family. Lydia and Hannah ... (the babysitting years) prom dress, The Little Mermaid, Barbies... Pam... Mom's In Touch, Philip (friend), and David... piano years and the Word both treasures invested in Lindsey's life and ours. These threads woven together to create a tapestry called family. Devotion to one's Lord, wife and children. Thank you for your continuing example.
Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. Psalm 34:10 Those who seek the Lord shall not be in want of any good thing. Even chili dogs! You have made us smile...again. Nothing shall separate us from the love of God. Aaron and Brook are headed to seminary in CA on June 13th. One of many answers to your prayers during the middle and high school years. Interceding for you now. The Hardings.(enjoying all of your pictures!)
