A Word from Mama Waters

Dear Family & Friends,

It is hard to know how to begin to thank all of you for all you have done for our family. The out pouring of support for us has been such a blessing. The cards - mail - words of encouragement - flowers - meals - visits - sweet tea - financial support - blessings jars - mercy cups - council - and prayers - mostly the prayers - have been our sustaining grace as we walk through this. Thank you so much!!

I started a journal about the time Jared got sick and when I go back and read what I've written since May 20th, I don't know who's life I am reading about - it all seems so unreal.
I am learning a lot:

1. Control in an illusion.
2. "Normal" is a cycle on the dryer.
3. God shows up for us everyday and for that I am thankful.

Thank you again for all that you do for the Waters - we really appreciate it!

And I will close with something that I never thought I would say - God Bless the Hooters Girls! The Hooters in Fort Worth let the Haltom City Fire Department have a car wash at their restaurant twice to raise money for Jared...they raised about $900!! A big thank you to both of them!

Love,
Dianne

P.S. Hope is a "memory of the future".
