Thank You, Thank You!

Along the way I made sure to say thank you quite frequently.  But, I wanted to add one specific post to thank all of you.

  • Thank you to Wanda for visiting us in Sacramento more than once.
  • Debie, thank you for visiting Kim in the hospital.  Such a sweet encouragement.
  • Jim and Jan Clark.  Thank you for coming, for staying, for visiting, for spending time with all of us.
  • Bill and Fran.  Thank you for spending time with Frank while I was still caring for mom in the hospital.  It gave me such peace of mind.  And he LOVED the visit.
  • Thank you to Phil for praying with us at the hospital all day on Monday (December 6).
  • Thank you to Phil and Beth for coming to Sacramento to have breakfast with us (December 12).
  • Thank you so Rebecca Wilson for helping out with Kim's laundry.
  • Thank you to the Sparks Team for making get well posters for Kim and Frank.
  • Thank you to the T&T girls for making cookies for Kim and Frank.
  • Thank you to the Merced Sun-Star for writing to VERY beautiful articles on Kim and Frank.
  • Thank you to Sarah Hobbs for updating the church on Kim and Frank's journey.
  • Thank you to Janie Melin for updating the Encouragers Sunday school class as the journey unfolded.
  • Thank you to the Hoffmann Family for EVERYTHING you did for the Culvers.
  • Thank you to Sandy Nelson for doing some Culver laundry when Jason and the kids returned to Merced (absent Melissa).
  • Thank you to the entire First Baptist Church community for praying for, caring for, loving, and serving us in this season.
  • Cards, phone calls, and visitors.  Thank you to everyone who has cared in these ways.
  • Testimony.  Thank you to all of you who have forwarded this blog to others.  And thank you for sharing with us what a beautiful encouragement this has been to others who are facing this very situation--organ failure.
  • Andrea Beene.  Thanks for taking the kids on Saturday so that Jason could get some rest.  The kids had a blast.
  • Mandy Schoonhoven.  Thank you for homeschooling my kids for two days (in addition to your five) so that we wouldn't fall behind.
  • Thank you to Grammy for loving your grandkids a bunch when Jason needed it most.
  • Paula Dawson.  You called me.  Thank you for crying with me and praying for me.
  • Deanna Donaghy.  Thank you for calling me.  I think we cried.  It's hard to remember all the details now.  I love you.
  • Facebook.  For all of you who followed this journey on Facebook.  Thank you for posting.  Thank you for caring in all the ways that you did.
I know I'm leaving some other thank you's out.  I'm sorry.  And you didn't do it for a thank you.  So, you probably don't mind that you're not up there.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.

To everyone who cared: we say 'Thank you.'

Because of His great love,
Melissa Culver
