Could someone please help me



Is it possible to help me or I may be beyond



help.



I worked "SIX HOURS" on part 3, my



post about Richie and Megan's garden...



When I came to the end of the post,


it comes up



it can't save it.....



I saved it and it is in edit page but I can't



get it out to add to a new post.



This...blogger issues...is what takes the fun



out of blogging. It is getting harder and harder



to see and that is why I don't visit blogs as



much...it just drains my eyes...then you spend



such time on a post and poof it is gone.




I DO WANT TO REPORT A PRAISE REPORT!!


Doris Bjork sent me an e mail to thank


everyone who prayed for Richideen...she


said that Richideen told her that yesterday


she felt so well, that she felt like a normal


human being and was helping to plan a


birthday party.


THANK YOU JESUS.


WE PRAISE YOUR HOLY NAME.


THANK YOU TO EACH OF YOU PRECIOUS


PRAYER WARRIORS.


For someone who is so ill, to have a


day she feels normal...makes me cry


WITH JOY...


that is an awesome miracle of God and


I PRAISE HIM FOR IT.


WE SHALL CONTINUE TO BOMBARD


HEAVEN WITH OUR PRAYERS FOR


ALL IN NEED.



Richideen is waiting for the results of


an MRI.


HUGS AND LOVE

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RICHIE AND MEGAN...Part Two



HAPPY ANNIVERSARY



RICHIE AND MEGAN RAGAN



JUNE 1, 2007





I am late, as usual, posting, but Mr.



Simply and I were not late wishing them



a Happy Anniversary before we left Kansas



and I left them each a message on their phone.




This picture was taken on the front porch of



their very quaint cottage. Megan and Richie



have always loved and had large front porches.



When they moved, they finally found a church



pew for their front porch. I was at such peace



setting on their front porch and a yard



surrounded by big trees and his flower bed he made.



I WAS VERY PROUD OF THAT.


Megan and Richie love the quaint, historical


houses. They are the type that do not want


a new house in a new neighborhood. They want


the cottage with the big front porch and lots of


built ins and unique windows and lots of


trees surrounding them. They want to set on


their porch and wave at their neighbors.




I will tell a story about him...now it is funny but



it wasn't then.....no, I am going to tell it with the next



post.




In the picture above Megan is holding their fur baby


Izzie. She is a precious Yorkie, with child, for the


second time and she is so cuddly and sweet but


you cannot let her down or out without a leash.


If she sees a squirrel or cat, she takes out like a


jet plane.


Their first fur baby is Nova and he is a Yorkie,


and he loves to wear polo shirts....he looks like a


college student. Izzie has beautiful little dresses


but she is a little tomboy.


You can tell by the t-shirt, my son has become


a KANSAS CITY ROYAL BASEBALL fan.


Richie lives and breathes sports....he however,


yeah, remained a loyal Oklahoma Thunder,


professional basketball fan. He will however,


remain always an OSU...OKLAHOMA STATE


COWBOY FAN FOR COLLEGE BASKETBALL AND


FOOTBALL.


Megan...she is a fan with him. I became so use


to watching sports with my husband and Richie,


that I catch myself watching sports when they were


not around. Amy loved sports also and enjoyed


attending Richie's soccer games. One of our most


favorite is when it had been raining and there were


big mud holes every where and Richie was playing


goalie... he stopped them from scoring as he slid


across a big mud hole. We have it on tape and you


can just hear Amy hysterical in the back ground. She


didn't know whether to laugh or cry.


That was a rabbit trail down memory lane.


He was blessed to attend one Royal's game at the


generosity of a friend.












These flowers are for you, Megan and Richie.


You both amaze me every day with your


love and respect for each other and how every


night you set aside the time, where there is no TV


or distractions and talk about each other's day,


what is on the schedule for the next day, and just


anything that needs to be discussed.


I think you could influence other young couples


and even older, more mature ones.


I love that you encourage each other to grow


and are always there to help in any way.



I am proud you are mine and Dad and I LOVE


YOU BOTH VERY MUCH.






















I have a very urgent prayer request.


My dear friend Doris has a daughter


Richiedeen, who is a wife, mother, nurse


and has been struck with "CHAIRI."


It is a disease, a syndrome, the Dr's.


know little about. You can google "CHAIRI,"


and read about all the people afflicted with


it and their horror stories.


Richideen has been having blackouts, difficulty


walking at time, nausea and vomiting from


the medication she has to take. They did


surgery on her and placed a plate at the base


of her brain to try and hold the brain up-


ward. All the people suffering with "CHAIRI"


want prayer for a Dr. with wisdom on this


disease and how to treat it.


Father God in Heaven, thy true Physician,


send healing to the people suffering from


this and anoint physicians with your wisdom on


how to bring healing to these special souls.


We lift each soul suffering from cancer, heart


disease, diabetes, lung disorders, depression, arthritis,


back trouble, gout, sinus infections, migraine


headaches, joint disorders,


and aides, up to your throne room of mercy and


grace and speak with the authority, of the blood


of Jesus for mighty healing's to begin.


WE PRAISE YOUR HOLY NAME JESUS AND


THANK YOU FOR THESE HEALING'S.

FATHER AND SON...Part one


and keep you for following my blog and your


kindness to me. I pray you find kindness when


you visit here.


Each one of you are so very special.


My blogging has been down as there


are many exciting things going on in


my life.



We have been out of state and it did


me and my husband soooooo much good...


well...I can't speak for my husband...lol...just


kiddin' honey buns....


I'll talk more about our trip in a minute.





First I want to say a special prayer


of THANK YOU TO:


SWEET FRAN




QUEENMOTHERMAMAW/PEGGY




DORIS BJORK


THE GORGEOUS T


MY MOTHER-IN-LOVE


MY FATHER IN LOVE


MY MOTHER


AND


MY DADDY


for all of THE PRAYERS and


ENCOURAGEMENT OFFERED UP FOR


MY SON RICHIE'S, KNEE SURGERY.



I have to tell you I had to do some big


talking to Jesus. Richie's surgery was one they do


thousands of and it was out patient. I think,


I feel, that when you have a child in heaven, you


know how precious life is and I kept telling my son


it would be okay but even HE KNEW, I was trying


to convince myself.



PRAISE THE LORD, with just your usual


recovery pain, he was blessed and the surgery


went fine. He has 3 places that he will have to have


7 stitches taken out in 7-10 days.



PRAYER REQUESTS



1. The HAMIL Family...2 sons were killed in the


tornado as well as their daughter was hospitalized


with head trauma, the mother is 5 months pregnant


and is now out of the hospital after surgeries for


broken bones...and their home was totally destroyed.



2. Bonnie...ovarian cancer


3. Midge...cancer


4. Angel Dawn...cancer


5. Marta...high blood pressure


6. Mike Brown...recovering from severe injuries/


motorcycle wreck


7. Sharon...recovering from stroke. She is a


dear friend of garage sale Deb and she told


me she is doing better but still needs our


prayers.


8. Lori as she deals with the grief of her son's


death on March 26, 2011


9. Aunt Patricia...has hospice coming in home


10. Mary...ovarian cancer


11. Chance...cancer


12. Korbi...much grief still over Lelia's death


13. Mr. C...cancer


14. Loretta and her mother...all care givers


need a special prayer every day.


15. Jess...a safe pregnancy


OUR MILITARY and their families


ALL THE STATES RECOVERING FROM


TORNADOES.


JAPAN


IT IS HURRICANE SEASON NOW AND LET'S


PRAY NO LIVES OR PROPERTY WILL BE


LOST...THAT GLORY TO GOD THEY WILL


FIZZLE OUT BEFORE REACHING LAND.



If someone you have requested prayer for, it


is an encouragement to others to share how your


loved one or friend is doing, or if they still need


prayer.











This is Father and son.


My 6ft. baby boy and my honey buns. He is


pretending to squeeze our son's knee.









This is my son Richard.


He will always be my Richie.


Amy and I always called him Richie.


Most people call him Rich.


For the first 48 hours he had to have this


polar express to his knee...you add ice to this


ice chest type thing...plug it in and it is like a


continous ice pack.


Richie did very well until the day came to


remove his bandage...his knee was quite


swollen and that made him nauseated.


Most of the major swelling was gone in 24 hours.



My husband and I had a wonderful time


visiting with our son and dil, Megan. She was


a good little nurse to Richie. They are a neat


couple.


There are some posts to come of some pictures


we took while visiting.
