Zucchini/Meatloaf Boats

Brea woke up this morning with an unusual surge of energy and cooking vigor (both very rare). She was excited to cook with all our new vegetables. She made two loafs of zucchini bread (Ben loves it) and zucchini/meatloaf boats for dinner. Brea is not usually a cook; however the food was great (she made so much we gave most of it away) and she is very proud of herself.
Thank you everyone for the wonderful veggie ideas and recipes.

Stewart Veggies

Brea has been going to a woman who does holistic healing from out of her home. Saturday, after another session, we walked with her and her husband back to look at their garden. They have been living in their home for 40+ years and have a beautiful home, yard and garden. They had so many vegetables and they just started picking and bagging TONS of them for us. They said they had to much so they probably gave us over $50.00 of free veggies. They gave us beans, red potatoes, cucumbers, beats, zucchini and squash. We are so grateful and thankful to the Stewarts for their hospitality. It is amazing how simply and unexpected prayers can be answered.



Medical Trials- Sep 7, 2008

During the night (before school started) we woke to a medical emergency... Brea had another seizure. As a brief history, she has been fighting some medical problems since this past January when she had her first seizure ever. Since then, she has been making improvements while attending school in both the Winter and Summer semesters.
Until last night, there have been no other seizures. We spent the week in and out of doctor’s appointments and tests. Unfortunately we missed the first week of school- however our teachers and professors have been so kind and understanding.

Thank you to all the prayers and warm wishes. We will keep you updated on Brea’s progress.
