Tiffany's Thread (updates and prayers, and a place where she can smack Joe in public when he needs it :)

It's just so much to think about, and plan, and prep for, and plan, and figure out, and plan....

My planner brain is spinning in every direction.
Why, if there has ever been an example of God having someone in His palm it would be Tiffany. Yes God will expect action from you both, but the path has obviously already been paved. Relax, do everything to reduce/eliminate infection and enjoy this ride!

It is nerve wracking, but I've been telling her that. It's all gonna work out, it's just anxious waiting to see how 🤣

I know! That's why I said my brain is spinning (which God also made, cause his earth doesn't plan itself).
 
@joevol33 did you feel a peace about it? Did you get the feeling you were looking for?
It's been a weird (hate saying it like that) peace about it. I shared in here that Romans 8:28, but I've been telling her that the past couple of days. She was really scared that they'd reject her, especially having to wait two more days to find out. I told her she's the one, that for whatever reason, everything that's happened has worked towards this. I've always said her story reminds me of the lady in the Bible with the issue of blood. There's a verse in there that says, "she suffered many things of many physicians, had spent all that she had, and was nothing better, but rather grew worse". I'm sure you know that story, and she got her miracle when she touched him. What always got me, Jesus said with all that crowd pressing on him, who touched me. It was different, the Bible says when she did he felt virtue (goodness) come out of him. I believe her faithfulness has touched his goodness (his virtue), and he's going to bless her for it. May be crazy to some, but call me crazy.

Yes!! Yes!! Yes!!

My God Joe. MY God. YOUR God Joe. Tiff's God!

There is only one God. And He is showing the world why He is the king of kings.

I'm a mess. A total mess right now. I still can't believe this is happening.

Luke 8:43-48

12 years and she just touched is garment and was healed because of her faith.
 
43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,

44 Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.

45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.

47 And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
 
Everywhere we've been, from here, to New Hampshire, to Florida, I've watched God use her situation to be able to be a help to others. A few times I've had the blessing to share God's love with someone, but many times her. I don't post about that much, but I think I did about the lady beside her last year in pre-op. How she was terrified, and God put her right beside Tiffany. Tiffany was scared, but laid it aside to encourage that lady. Simple moments like that mean nothing to most, but to the lady she prayed with, it was what she needed right then. Stuff like that, how God works it, just amazes me.
 
Here we go. Those folks are smart, almost on my level 🤣. Seriously, they're very confident, and have a plan. The biggest concern is her infection, but they want her out there about a month before surgery, and then treat her themselves. Me and her would also have to use an antibiotic flush to clean her stoma every day. There's no waiting really for a bladder, and he said their area is the highest in the US for organ harvesting, so they'd basically get a match whenever they wanted. As we talked, you could see these people thinking, and even impressive what the main Dr said. He said, "this is what we do, we take cases nobody else can figure out. There's concerns, but we're confident in what we do". She'll have to stay about 3 months after, so she's going to be there for about 4 months. I'll be there until 2-3 weeks after surgery, until I know she's going to be okay. Her sister will likely stay the rest of the time. They will let her out, but stay at the hotel directly across the street. Pray for us, we got some stuff to work out, but I'm confident God will work it all out . Love you guys.
This is an answered prayer and the one that you and Tiffany have been waiting for and it is exciting and scary all at the same time, but the Lord will
be there with you all and get you all through it and I am so Happy for you all, Thank you Jesus.

This warms my heart so much for you all joe! I teared up reading it as it reaffirms my own faith. I'm going to continue praying for you all that this is the end of all the issues Tiffany has dealt with throughout this ordeal. And just know everyone on here loves you guys too! 🙏🏻

Wanna share this to brag on her, and where her heart is despite all of what she's been through. We were talking, and jokingly saying how we've had to travel to some rough places for her health.
She said maybe you keep missing your part, and I asked what she meant. She said "I know you talked to a few people, but maybe God is giving you a chance to share him in rough areas. I know you're focused on me, but don't overlook the opportunity to try to help someone else with the gospel ". IDK, it just got me, something this big, and she's thinking more about sharing God's love with people.

Trying to get things together that we think the girls will need, and making a list of what to get. Food of course 🤣, medicine for any occasion, garbage bags, laundry detergent. They'll have people taking turns being with them, but still trying to prepare for anything basic. This may happen fairly quickly, they're probably going to start the flushing her stoma her, so we'll be ahead when we get there. Dr from there called her today, and wanted her Drs number here, so he could work with them to get things started. Lot to get together, plus trying to plan for getting stuff out there, like Uber, instacart, etc. Gonna try to overpay utilities, so I won't have to worry about it. By worrying about it, I mean forget, cause I'll definitely forget 🤣

So, a lot sooner than “a month or two”, it sounds like?
