Hi, from Mom

Hi from Mom:

I think that I have communicated the results from my MRI to most of you. First of all I still have a brain. Yeh! I have a very tiny tumor on my pituitary; as you well know this is called a prolactoma; so I am doing well on the medication that I take to keep this tumor from growing. I think the severe head pain that I experienced was high blood pressure from the death of my sweet dog Dollie.
Just a quick note to ask you to pray for your Dad and I. I am sure that you already know that we are doing a program in our Stake for the youth called Book of Mormon Live. Dad and I need your faith and prayers through the week end. We will be teaching 5 session for 40-50 minutes each. It has been such a testimony for us to feel the spirit as we have been working on this project. We will be teaching in tents and will have 6-7 young men and women of age groups from 12 -17. They will be assigned for all 5 sessions to our tent. We were so blessed to get my favorite area of the Book of Mormon which is 3 Nephi 8 through Mormon 8. This has been and hopefully will be one of the spiritual highlights of our lives. Thus far it's been a lot of work to put this together and we have experienced negative moments; which I attribute to Satan. He wants this to fail. We are grateful for the moments that we have received spiritual direction. I simply don't know what we would do without the prayer and the spirit. Then to top this off; both Dad and I have a lesson to give on Sunday for our callings. We have been very busy. I will post some pictures of the event later on.
We need your prayers and love you all. Mom

Mom & Dad,
We'll pray for you. Just remember to have fun and that should relax you a bit. I didn't know about the tumor. I guess next time you call you can fill me in.
Sorry we didn't hook up after the game. I was on the road when my phone said there was a message from you. If we are going to win, I usually try to leave with about 5 minutes left, to beat the crowd.
Love Sean, Mary, & Kids

Hi you two! Just wanted to see how the weekend went with the Book of Mormon activity. Sounds like an amazing experience for all involved.
Also we will be keeping you and your health in our prayers.
Love you!
