I just visited the Natalie Bear website today and realized that today is the day she is having her tube pulled. Please take a moment and say a little prayer for her and her family.

I knew there was a reason we hadn't heard from MOPNB much lately and I knew this was lurking out there but forgot the actual date. Many, many prayers for the Bear and her family. We're here for you all, Becca.

thanks from me too Thomas, I always need reminders, thats why when asked to pray about something, I need to do it right then and there or its out of sight and out of mind.

Anyway, God bless them both and may God grant them a good outcome!

Praying for continued good health and good results with no tubey. Her site this morning says they are home and no tubey so prayerfully this time it works and she can be tube free and no more transplant needed.

Continued prayers for Natalie from Illinois. I also continue to pray for the doctors and for her family and friends, to give them all strength, wisdom, patience, and skill in caring for the bear and coping with the emotions.

You guys rock. You are awesome...such a source of inspiration and strength.

Here is the update:

Tubey 1 - March 2005 - November 2005
Tubey 2 - February 2006 - July 19, 2007

We're home - all of us.
And all of us are "tubey" free.

And now the hard part begins. We can only wait and see. Will the duct stay open? Will she continue to have sludge issues? If the duct stays open = no new transplant.


Oh, yeah, our site's guestbook is closed. Some creap keeps posting spam and links to porn sites. Ick. I was mad, but I'm so over it. Please fee free to email us in the meantime, while the guestbook takes a break.

That last tube was in 17 months. That's a long time. I pray that it was long enough for growth in that area to stablize and let it remain open.

Kind of like pierced ears. You pierce your ears, but take the earrings out after a short time and the holes heal over. But, if you pierce your ears, wear earrings until the healing is done, then, even if you go for months without earrings, when you do go to put them in, the holes are still open.

I know that is an oversimplification, but I think that's the basics of it.

Anyway, prayers will continue from Central Wisconsin!

MOPNB - I checked out Natalie's website this morning to see if there was any updates posted over the weekend, but there isn't anything new. Is no news, good news? Hope all is still well with the Bear and that the first few days of being tube free have gone better than expected.

You are all in my prayers!
